My suggestion would be to write a concise explanation of what you see as the problem. Have your mentor(s) attend your local team forum (should be held during the last two weeks of May) to hand this in. If your mentor(s) cannot attend, send this explanation to FIRST, Attn: team support. That way FIRST can try to address these issues, see if there is a pattern.

There are many layers and parties involved in shipping. Teams, FedEx, local drayage, SES.

If you have a Senior Mentor, also send to them.
