Scope matters. What are you willing to give up for it? What if we got a tigheter scope so Fedex decided the cost will push freight to trucks and this resulted in a furlough? Be careful what you ask for. Fedex management has a track record of working around any new items in the contract.
If they can get something from San Juan to Seattle overnight on a truck, great. Until that moment, our scope better make sure its on a FedEx plane flown by FedEx pilots.
