Overview

UPS is one of the world’s largest parcel delivery companies and a long-time logistics partner to Amazon. But as Amazon builds out its own delivery fleet and profitability concerns grow, UPS is questioning whether the relationship still makes sense. The candidate must evaluate the financial trade-offs, competitive risks, and strategic alternatives to recommend whether UPS should scale back, maintain, or deepen the partnership.
