The Cargo 2000 Master Operating Plan has been developed based on detailed customer research and with the assistance of leading IT companies. It sits at the heart of air cargo industry-wide process control and reporting system that in turn drives data management and corrective action systems.
By reducing the number of individual processes in the air cargo supply chain from 40 to just 19,Cargo 2000 is less labor intensive and improves the processes for managing shipments in a paperless environment. It substantially reduces time spent managing irregularities, such as service
failures, cuts the time required for manual track and trace procedures and leads to a reduction is service recovery costs.
Master Operating Plan deployment
Cargo 2000’s quality management system is being implemented in three distinct phases. The key to the Master Operating Plan is the creation of a unique ‘route map’ for individual shipments that is monitored and measured throughout the delivery cycle of each shipment.
- Phase 1 manages Airport to Airport movements - shipment planning & tracking at Master air waybill level. Once a booking is made, a plan is automatically created with a series of checkpoints against which the transportation of every air cargo shipment is managed and measured. This enables the system to alert Cargo 2000 members to any exceptions to the plan, allowing them to respond pro-actively to fulfil their customers’ expectations.
- Phase 2 is responsible for shipment planning and tracking at House air waybill level and provides interactive monitoring of the door-to-door movement.
- The third and final phase of Cargo 2000 manages shipment planning and tracking at individual piece level plus document tracking. This provides for real-time management of the transportation channel at piece level. It will also control the flow of information which will be vital for current and future security requirements.
