Sodexi has developed a system for total electronic processing of air cargo shipments

Posted by | Sep 13, 2007 | |

In 2008, a new IT procedure will be introduced to replace the old paper based administration for exports. The system will be capable of running the entire transport process – from the original order through to delivery of goods.

The latest version of the Sodexi-designed system, entitled DELTA X, allows the full treatment of the process from handling, through automatic Customs clearance to final delivery.

Part of the Air France cargo network, Sodexi provides fast, efficient handling of express cargo at its computer-controlled airside facility at Paris CDG airport. Apart from traffic emanating from the Air France network, the company handles the Equation service for all Skyteam members, and handles many other airlines as well as FedEx, TNT, DHL, Chronopost and other specialist express forwarders.

DHL Malaysia has a win-win relationship with Transmile

Posted by | Sep 12, 2007 | |

DHL Express (Malaysia) has not been affected by the financial debacle in Transmile Group Bhd, DHL Malaysia country manager Sam Leong said.

Despite facing internal problems, Transmile had been able to deliver on its commitment to DHL and there had been no change to DHL’s relationship with the cargo carrier, he said.

Transmile provides express air cargo service to DHL, which is also the former’s single biggest customer. Transmile has said that DHL is expected to contribute almost half of Transmile’s revenue from July 2007 to June 2008.

Leong also pointed out that the relationship was good for DHL because Transmile operated out of Subang airport.

He also revealed that he received many calls in the first few weeks when the troubles in Transmile emerged.

Transmile has since put in place a new management team, led by group managing director Wong Yoke Ming, in the aftermath of its financial debacle.

The new management team is currently developing a strategic roadmap to bring the company back to profitability in the next three to five years.

DHL introduces e-invoicing to improve efficiencies

Posted by | Sep 12, 2007 | |

DHL shared its e-invoicing experiences with delegates at the EXPP European Summit 2007 in London. DHL is automating its accounts receivable (AR) processes across Europe with an e-invoicing service from Accountis Europe Ltd, an international provider of secure financial document exchange and payment systems.

Brian Thumwood, e-billing programme manager for DHL, spoke to around 300 delegates at the e-invoicing and e-billing summit, where he launched the company’s Flash demonstration of its e-invoicing application.

The Flash demonstration takes customers through the e-invoicing process step-by-step, allowing them to see the many benefits it will bring to their business before they register.

With the implementation of Accountis EIPP (Electronic Invoicing Presentment and Payment), all DHL’s paper invoices from 13 European countries will now be generated and delivered electronically, resulting in a much faster and cost-effective process for DHL and its European customers. DHL’s operations in Belgium and Switzerland have been the first to experience the benefits of Accountis EIPP, with the remaining 11 countries coming online in the near future.

European courier TNT eyes Subic logistics facility

Posted by | Sep 12, 2007 | |

European courier TNT NV is looking at the possibility of taking over the Subic Bay logistics facility that will be vacated by US-based Federal Express when it relocates its Asia-Pacific hub operations to Guangzhou, China next year.

Sources said the Dutch courier, in line with its expansion binge amid increased traffic in the region, could be eyeing the Subic facilities currently being used by FedEx for its Asia- Pacific regional hub operations.

Earlier, the country tried to lure another foreign courier to take over the facility, which is adjacent to the Subic Bay International Airport.

European courier DHL International GmBH has announced as early as last year that it was definitely not taking over FedEx’s facility in Subic.

US-based United Parcel Service of America Inc., on the other hand, has a hub in Clark, Pampanga.
