Potential UPS Strike - How to Mitigate Shipping Delays

UPDATE: As of 7/25/2023, the Teamsters had reached a tentative agreement with UPS, averting the potential strike.

The Teamsters Union has authorized a strike at UPS due to failed contract negotiations. In the absence of an agreement on a new contract, the strike is scheduled to begin on August 1. We want to assure you we are aware of the situation and are proactively working to mitigate disruption to any orders.
 
We plan to shift our shipping to alternate carriers in the event of a UPS strike. However, we expect that the strike at UPS could cause a surge in shipping volumes for all other carriers, resulting in potential delays or limitations in service availability.
 
To reduce the risk of delays, we encourage you to place parts and systems orders before July 24, if possible. Additionally, you may want to consider stocking some basic emergency equipment to avoid potential downtime. Please use the contact information below to inquire about ordering.
