Problems in Air Cargo Industry
Average air shipment generates more than 30 documents, handled by various stakeholders in the supply chain.
• Inefficient use of time to re-enter data during information transfer
• Errors during data translation from one document to another
• Lack of ability to track and trace data flow in real-time
• Lack of ability to trace data source for verification
IATA e-freight
e-freight aims to take the paper out of air cargo and to replace it with the exchange of electronic data and messages.
