29 - Leverage our existing campus mail infrastructure

Progress

Objective

Leverage our existing campus mail infrastructure to perform last-mile deliveries on behalf of select third-party suppliers.  This consolidation will reduce emissions since campus vehicles already drive these routes.  The change mitigates risk because our drivers are familiar with the campus and well trained. This program will also generate revenue since suppliers currently pay third parties for the last mile; in the new model the suppliers will pay Supply Chain.  

Metric

Pilot with one supplier (Fisher Scientific) a last-mile delivery program starting Jul 30, 2024.  If pilot is successful, onboard one to two additional suppliers with last-mile delivery by Jun 30, 2025.
