After discussion with GPS, I have reiterated to them that due to lack of storage space, and that moving forward, YTMT will plan GPS crates pick up based on 120 crates.
As mentioned earlier, as this is non-optimum load, GPS will combine collection with our customers in the area. However, they confirm that they will keep collection to within 15 days from when YTMT raise the request.
Although this is not ideal, i trust if will give YTMT better estimate to plan pick-up to minimize accumulation of crates.
I suggest we plan basis 15 days and monitor GPS performance moving forward. If there are further service level failure, please do not hesitate to raise it to me.
Otherwise, we can discuss further when my JP colleague (Keiko-san, A/C manager for YRC) visits with me in November
