Lechocki joins Hermes as head of products and services

Hermes Logistics Technologies (HLT) has appointed Jacek Lechocki as head of products and services, as it continues rolling out Hermes 5 (H5), the latest version of its cargo management system.
Lechocki, heading the cargo and quality control teams, will be responsible for Hermes’ Cargo PM, Product PM and Help Desk services, as well as heading cargo sales efforts among other areas of the business.
“As a commercial aviation enthusiast, I am very excited to be joining HLT at a time when adoption of latest technologies can drive significant efficiencies and competitive advantage for customers,” said Lechocki.
“My fascination with air cargo started at British Airways World Cargo, where I managed the global customer engagement programme for the adoption of electronic messaging and bar-coding, as part of the new business transformation.
“Subsequently, I managed a portfolio of commercial and services e-business projects, including e-bookings, Cargo 2000 development and accreditation and electronic messaging and customer connections, as well as participating in IATA working groups for development of Cargo 2000, eAWB and XML data standards.”
The UK-headquartered cargo management systems provider began the global roll-out of H5, capable of running within any Cloud, earlier this year, modernising the Hermes framework for integration with new technologies.
“We have begun upgrading our customers to the new version of our cargo management and hub management systems, a process that involves, in brief, demos, release documentation and testing,” said Yuval Baruch, chief executive, Hermes Logistics Technologies.
