e-AWBs made easier for Connecta forwarders to plug into e-freight
CHAMP Forwarding Systems has signed a partnership agreement with UK-based Connecta Airfreight Network to accelerate electronic air waybill (e-AWB) adoption among small and medium size forwarders.
Connecta's members will access the CHAMP Cargosystems subsidiary's web-based freight forwarding system Logitude, enabling the more efficient and cost-effective management of quotes, shipments, bookings and consolidations.
"This agreement is of significant value to Connecta - and more importantly our members as we will be able to further expand our membership services to them," said Connecta network manager Sarah Bidmead.
"Our members will benefit from an easy-to-use cloud-based platform to run their operations, but also submit e-AWBs and take part in IATA's global e-freight initiative without major financial or IT commitments," she said.
Said CHAMP Forwarding Systems vice president Nicholas Xenocostas: "Not only will small and medium sized forwarding agents enhance their competitiveness, they will also be able to reduce costs, time and errors."
