China Airlines will use IBS Software’s iCargo solution as its new cargo management system as part of its digitalisation efforts.

Using the IBS Software platform, China Airlines will transition from its existing cargo system to a new single platform which includes sales, import and export operations, airmail handling and revenue accounting capabilities.

“China Airlines cargo has been endeavouring to modernise our digital capabilities for years. However, we see the evolutional change in digital sales and operations since COVID, and I believed SaaS is the right solution we are looking for,” said Eddy Liu, senior vice president of cargo, China Airlines.

“We expect to build up a strong partnership with IBS Software and to realise faster time-to-market for our products and services without compromising compliance of data integrity.”

Gautam Shekar, senior vice president and region head APAC and Middle East at IBS Software, said: “As a pioneer of APAC air cargo market and one of the heavyweight cargo players, China Airlines has extensive experience transporting special cargo and remains the carrier of choice for international transportation partners.

“We’re honoured to be selected by China Airlines to support its growth journey. This agreement aligns with IBS Software’s long-term strategy to further expand our presence in the exciting APAC market and help local customers modernise and add value to their cargo proposition.”
