Amazon.com Inc. may be planning more than just a shipping and logistic business versus UPS and FedEx.

The report mulled a global delivery network that controls the flow of goods from factories in China and India to U.S. and U.K. customers. The project, called Dragon Boat, is proceeding, according to a person familiar with the initiative.
