In 2008, recognising the growing importance of the home delivery sector Triangle started a UK B2C Express Parcels Distribution Survey. Introduced in 2011, the new UK Domestic Express Parcels Report combines the results from the B2B and B2C sector surveys. 2012 will be Wave 2 representing a total sample size of around 900 parcels shippers. Each sector survey focuses on regular B2B or B2C parcels shippers within the UK, tracking changes in service usage and customer perceptions of the leading carriers and their performance levels.

For many senior executives in the express industry the study sets independent KPI's for internal management initiatives and provides an invaluable competitor benchmark comparison which can work alongside in-house research data such as carriers' own customer satisfaction surveys. Shippers too will find the survey an invaluable input to carrier selection and monitoring. The surveys are based on fixed quotas for primary carrier ratings (i.e. carrier used most often), in order to guarantee robust results for each of the main carriers.
