The partnership is expected to provide speedier e-documentation and delivery to JAL’s cargo customers worldwide. At the recent Association of Asia Pacific Airlines Assembly of Presidents, the director general and CEO of the airline industry’s global association, Alexandre De Juniac, said the air cargo industry remained an industry dominated by paper documents. He urged all cargo and logistics providers to adopt a global e-paper trail to bring the industry into line with IT operations in all other areas of airline operations.
Japan Airlines executive officer cargo and mail, Hiroo Iwakoshi, said: “CHAMP’s comprehensive understanding of the air cargo industry clearly contributed to the great results we have accomplished from our business transformation project thus far. We are confident this new phase will offer the same outcomes.”
CHAMP Cargosystems CEO, Arnaud Lambert, said: “I am proud that Japan Airlines has again entrusted CHAMP to provide the technology to support these exciting projects that will see the airline’s cargo business processes taken to a new level.”
The Luxembourg headquartered company produces the Cargospot cargo management application, the CHAMP business intelligence tool, a ULD manager asset sytem and the Customs Gateway reporting system. It also operates offices in Singapore, Manila, Frankfurt, Zurich, London and Atlanta.
