How do you manage capacity flexibility during seasonal demand spikes?

The CORE X Partners operating model is designed to support seasonal flexibility through deliberate planning and disciplined execution. Network-wide capacity utilization is actively managed to balance volume shifts across regions, allowing demand surges in one market to be absorbed without overloading individual facilities. Real-time inventory visibility across the network supports proactive capacity allocation, with space, labor, and transportation resources adjusted based on forecasted demand and customer growth plans.

Capacity management is coordinated through close collaboration between centralized support teams and regional Partnering Regional Operators (PROs). This structure preserves local responsiveness at the facility level while applying consistent systems, planning, and oversight across locations. During peak seasons, this coordination enables CORE X to maintain service levels, protect temperature control, and optimize facility utilization and transportation efficiency, even during periods of extreme volume fluctuation.
