摘要: This study used the benchmarking process incorporated in a case study approach to determine what the Air Force could learn from the commercial air cargo carriers in regard to customer service practices. The air cargo industry leaders were determined through a previous study to be United Parcel Service, Federal Express, Emery Air Freight, Airborne Freight, DHL Airways, and Burlington Air Express. In addition, the 437th Aerial Port Squadron (APS) at Charleston AFB South Carolina was the Air Force representative in the benchmarking study. Interviews with air cargo managers were conducted at each carrier's main hub and at Charleston AFB. The interview process resulted in the conclusion that most of the customer service practices in the commercial air cargo industry and the Air Force aerial port are similar. The Air Force is superior in customer service report dissemination, but is deficient in customer awareness and intransit cargo visibility. Recommendations include: employee appraisal modification, 360 degree review usage, focus group utilization, and frequent AMC executive and APS management communication.
