Using CHAMP Cargosystems first 100% AI based tool, leading ground handler WFS will enjoy profound time and operational efficiencies.
One of the world’s largest and leading ground handlers, Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), a SATS company, has implemented CHAMP A2Z Scan and is planning a wider rollout in 2025.
CHAMP A2Z Scan is a smart application that automates and digitalizes the time-consuming tasks of manual Air Waybill (AWB) data entry or comparison with corresponding AWB data into any cargo management system - including CHAMP’s Cargospot suite.
The solution - already operational in WFS’ Dublin warehouse - has quickly demonstrated significant benefits, including the ability to reduce the time it takes to capture an Air Waybill from 4 minutes manually to 30 seconds using CHAMP A2Z Scan – an impressive efficiency gain of more than 85%.
CHAMP Cargosystems and WFS have worked closely together in a period of rapid testing and improvement to ensure CHAMP A2ZScan meets the operational needs of the ground handler and delivers consistently superior service.
WFS will leverage CHAMP A2Z Scan to digitalize time consuming and manual processes and benefit from the automatic extraction of information into their cargo management system, Cargospot Handling. The transition to paperless document processing brings significant time savings, dramatically reduces the margin of error associated with manual operations and improves sustainability efforts by eliminating paper-based processes.
Lucas Fernandez, VP Innovation & Insight at CHAMP said: “I’m very excited to see Worldwide Flight Services implement CHAMP A2Z Scan and look forward to an impactful global rollout. CHAMP A2Z Scan is our first 100% AI-based product and will drive enormous efficiencies in ground handling operations. It is always a pleasure to work with WFS who share our values of innovation and digitalization in air cargo.”
Adam Brownson, IT Programs and Business Relationships Manager – EMEAA at WFS, said: “We look forward to embracing CHAMP A2Z Scan at key stations in our EMEAA network and are already seeing measurably positive results from its use in our Dublin warehouse. The move is another important step in our automation and digitalization journey, and we look forward to continuing to innovate our operations alongside CHAMP.”
