Cargo Airports and ServicesCalogi has added yet another paper-free feature to their innovative and extensive range of supply chain products, with a new solution to simplify the courier business. The new solution, rolled out in Dubai in January 2012, represents another step forward in Calogi’s quest to remove paper from the air cargo supply chain.
Designed by industry experts and the Calogi Express Handling module revolutionises the courier business and provides airlines and integrators (and in a second stage to be rolled out shortly, all other courier companies) with complete control and visibility of their premium, time-sensitive shipments.
In the past, integrators have been processing their courier shipments tendered to commercial airlines, using outdated paper-based processes. For example, airlines were distributing rate sheets to agents and cargo terminals alike, the cargo terminals were re-keying courier shipment data and invoices for GHA charges were being raised manually, this adds up to a considerable amount of time and effort for all parties. The Calogi courier solution now effectively makes paper documents obsolete and removes the need to rekey the data.
The new solution can shave 30 minutes from the time taken to process a courier shipment. Furthermore, the airline courier rates are now available online and freight and ground handling charges are automatically calculated, the margin of error is reduced by 99 per cent.
