By consolidating various capabilities under one umbrella, including dedicated teams for customized solutions, FedEx has secured numerous new customer wins.\n\nFor instance, the company developed a specialized logistics process to swiftly and reliably transport aircraft engines and oversized components, minimizing aircraft downtime. Since June 2025, FedEx has handled hundreds of aircraft engine transports, with engine moves increasing 15-fold from previous levels.\n\nCEO Raj Subramaniam highlighted the significant impact of engine transports during the third-quarter earnings call, noting that airlines are experiencing greater demand for specialized logistics support due to aging engines, supply chain challenges, and regulatory headwinds. Logistics companies offering AOG (Airplane On Ground) services provide around-the-clock support to manage tight time pressure, regulatory compliance, and expedite shipments.\n\nFedEx has expanded its AOG services and expanded its capabilities across key verticals, such as automotive production and cloud computing, to cater to customers' growing logistic needs.",
