You do know that at most major airport operations like say SLC it's a contractor who does everyone's deicing, right?
Folks on FlyerTalk seem to have this propensity to speak of or think of contractors in the airline field like a highway road crew of laborers sentenced to pick up litter. I find it humorous that thought when many are consultant/contractors who probably are thought of the same way by the employees at companies where they go in and do temporary work.
SLC deicing is NOT outsourced. Unifi is bottom of the barrel. They have old trucks, not enough trucks and headsets that break. Aeromag 2000 at Denver and does a great job. Deicing is all they do. IDS is another one. I would not put Unifi in that category.
