CACC Cargolinx selects Hermes for Cairo air cargo operations
Five-year agreement to drive operational efficiency for CACC Cargolinx as it moves to Hermes SaaS ecosystem
The latest cloud-based SaaS ecosystem from Hermes Logistics Technologies (HLT) is set to roll out across CACC Cargolinx’s operations at Cairo International Airport in time for summer 2024.
The new agreement, following a successful 12-year collaboration with HLT, will see the cargo-specialised ground handler upgrade its cargo management system by migrating to Hermes 5 SaaS, says an official release from Hermes.
"In addition, CACC Cargolinx will benefit from several integrations and solutions from the Hermes pay-as-you-go ecosystem, designed to drive further efficiencies for the company – Hermes Business Intelligence, Hermes Track & Trace and Hermes Integration (API)."
Yuval Baruch, CEO, Hermes says: “We have undertaken a very thorough scoping study with CACC Cargolinx, deploying our air cargo experts to uncover not only the company’s existing requirements but also those expected in the future, and we have tailored our solution, ensuring it is future-proofed.
“This project demonstrates our commitment to collaborating with our customers and our detailed approach to SaaS migrations, particularly when it comes to factoring in future innovation – it all comes down to delivering greater operational efficiency that will support business growth for the longest possible term."
The upgrade will see the company further digitalise its evolving operating environment, address all existing process gaps, and implement best-practice approaches to address anticipated future needs for its operations in Cairo and beyond, the release added.
“CACC Cargolinx is committed to delivering advanced logistics operations at Cairo International Airport, and our investment in the Hermes ecosystem represents a significant step forward in our digitalisation roadmap, says Ahmed Fahmy, Chief Technology Officer, CACC Cargolinx. “We are committed to providing our customers with the most efficient and reliable cargo handling services possible, and the Hermes ecosystem will empower us to achieve that goal and further solidify our position as a leader in the air cargo handling industry."
