The integration of the CargoWise platform will provide customers with a simplified booking process within their own IT-systems, providing air cargo rates, flight availability and the booking confirmation in real-time.
It will increase forwarder productivity, eliminate manual, error-prone data entry and rekeying between systems, provide increased visibility and reduce resources and costs.
Ashwin Bhat, Chief Commercial Officer of Lufthansa Cargo says: “Not only will this eBooking connection benefit our customers with increased efficiencies and productivity, but it is also enabling and supporting the digitalisation of the logistics ecosystem.”
Scott McCorquodale, Chief Automation Officer – Air Cargo at WiseTech Global says: “As we continue to secure global rollouts with the world’s largest freight forwarders, our eBooking functionality provides logistics operators with immediately available critical information including buy rates and flight availability, complemented by direct flight schedule feeds and increased shipment tracking visibility.”
