Birmingham Central Center, Alabama District
David with Birmingham Central Center
Each week, the UPS ‘Maximum Center’ program recognizes a UPS operating facility or Freight Service Center for success in safety and service. Chosen facilities are recognized with its Standard Location Identification Code (SLIC) or Freight Service Center three-letter code on the wing of David Ragan’s No. 6 UPS Ford Fusion.
This past weekend in Talladega, the Birmingham Central Center was featured on David’s car. This Center was chosen because of its high scores for the month of March on the Alabama District Center Balanced Scorecard. Additionally, the Birmingham Central Center has ranked number one on the scorecard each month this year.
The center team kicked off 2009 with a renewed commitment to safety and service; truly placing safety as a personal value and settling for nothing less than perfect service.
Continuous focus on safety and service resulted in significant jumps in the center’s scores and communication between the dispatch team, drivers, and pre-loaders have quickly resulted in an effective and balanced dispatch.
