The winning carrier must provide a "full market basket" of products and must also proactively meet GE's customer service and cycle time reduction objectives.
Ron Painter, GE's manager of corporate transportation programs, said outstanding customer service was a primary reason why CF was able to participate in all of GE's 12 major businesses.
