Oman Air Cargo has gone live with CHAMP Cargosystems’ Traxon cargoHUB after adopting IATA’s electronic air waybill (e-AWB) standard to replace the paper air waybill.

CHAMP joined Oman Air Cargo at their e-AWB workshop last autumn, an event aimed to educate and promote the initiative in the forwarding community across Oman and the region. By presenting innovative and valuable solutions to digitalisation, CHAMP has the goal of bringing wider adoption of e-AWBs across the supply chain.

Nicholas Xenocostas, vice president commercial and customer engagement at CHAMP Cargosystems says: “We are thrilled to bring Oman Air Cargo into our messaging community. This relationship allows us, together, to bring vital technologies and systems to the wider region. Everyone from the smallest forwarders to the largest carriers will have access and the know-how to conduct their business in a fully digitised world.”

Mohammed Ali Al Musafir, senior vice president – commercial cargo at Oman Air says: “CHAMP has provided the technologies to support us in our transformation. Any carrier can only be digitised as much as its clients and partners are. Therefore, it is vital that together we have the knowledge and solutions on the ground for everyone to feel their benefits. Our e-AWB workshop, along with CHAMP has made this possible.”
