Running hot in customers' hands: existing deployments are being used harder than they were sized for
The model's full reasoning — Q3 2022 call → NOWe need to determine if management describes existing customers using the product/service more intensively than originally planned, as a current observable pattern. The transcript mentions "increased drop sizes at our long-term customer locations" and "net new customer sales growth" but the key is whether existing customers are consuming more per account. Deverl says: "We are seeing net new customer sales growth and increased drop sizes at our long-term customer locations." Also "increased drop sizes at our long-term customer sites" and "more routes running over $1 million of annualized sales" - that indicates higher sales per route, but is that from existing customers using more? The drop sizes increasing suggests existing customers are ordering more per delivery. Also "we are up in drop size even at the present, which is one of our stated strategic objectives." This is about selling more products to existing customers. However, is this described as a current pattern? Yes. But is it "ahead of what the company or customer originally planned"? The transcript doesn't explicitly say that. It says they are increasing drop sizes by selling more products to existing customers. That could be ordinary growth. The question asks if the intensity of usage is climbing on its own ahead of plans. The management says they are "up in drop size" and that's a strategic objective. But they don't frame it as customers outgrowing or using more than expected. They are actively pushing more products. So it's not that customers are naturally consuming more; it's that the company is selling more to them. The question requires that the pressure originates in observed usage behavior of customers, not just company efforts. The transcript says "increased drop sizes at our long-term customer locations" - that is observed. But is it "ahead of what the company or customer originally planned"? Not stated. Also, they mention "more routes running over $1 million" - that's a metric of route performance, not necessarily per-customer usage. The question is about existing customers using more intensively. The drop size increase could be due to price increases or more products per order. But the management attributes it to selling more products.
