Air waybill is an important transport document in the air cargo movement. This air waybill exchanges hand with multiple entities namely, freight forwarders, Ground Handlers, Airlines etc. in the air cargo supply chain. This physical exchange of the air waybill leads to time consuming processes, duplicate data entry and is prone to manual errors.
With an in-depth industry knowledge and a thorough understanding of logistics business, Kale Logistics Solutions has designed its suite of ‘PING’ services that provides an efficient and time saving solution for all the administrative work pertaining to logistics. It is an innovative solution based on a combination of machine learning (ML) & optical character recognition (OCR). PING service extracts data from documents like Air Waybill and converts the same into EDI messages, which are auto transmitted to airlines/ ground handling agents. This service extracts data from AWB PDF copy and converts it into digital form and helps freight forwarders to send the information electronically thus enables them to focus on their core business rather than mundane administrative tasks.
With this innovative solution, PING reduces the overall costs for the end customer and delivering better value. Moreover, adoption of PING services also eliminates the human-to-human interactions, therefore the risk of contamination, which is a key element going forward in the pandemic situation.
