DHL Global Forwarding achieves worldwide Cargo 2000 Phase 2 certification
DHL Global Forwarding has achieved Phase 2 certification for Cargo 2000’s quality management system that covers the planning, control and measurement of the door-to-door process for air cargo shipments at House Air Waybill level.
The certification is for all DHL Global Forwarding sites worldwide. The company has been working toward global Phase 2 accreditation since gaining certification of its initial pilot stations five years ago.
Phase 2 of the Cargo 2000 program covers all of the intermediate activities performed by freight forwarders, addressing all key milestones in the air cargo quality measurement process for door-to-door deliveries at house air-waybill level. DHL Global Forwarding currently plans, measures and reports more than 300,000 shipments per month within the Cargo 2000 quality system.
The Cargo 2000 program is being implemented in three distinct phases. Phase 1 manages airport-to-airport movements (shipment planning & tracking at MAWB level). Phase 2 provides interactive monitoring of door-to-door movement (shipment planning and tracking at HAWB level). Phase 3 manages shipment planning and tracking at individual piece level plus document tracking.
Together with the New Ship and Hull Group of K-Line Ship Management Co, K-Line’s Ship Planning Group has been accredited under ISO9001 by the Norwegian shipping classification society Det Norske Veritas (DNV).
The accreditation covers K-Line’s new shipbuilding planning, design and development, determination of shipbuilding specifications, procedures for approval of approved drawings after shipbuilding-contracts, and performing supervisory activities during shipbuilding.
