WFS plans CHAMP A2Z Scan rollout to automate AWB processing
CHAMP A2Z scan reduces AWB capture time from 4 minutes to 30 seconds, boosting efficiency by 85%.
Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), a SATS company, has implemented CHAMP A2Z Scan and plans a wider rollout in 2025 to automate and digitalise paperless document processing.
The solution, developed by CHAMP Cargosystems, is an AI-based application that automates manual Air Waybill (AWB) data entry and comparison with cargo management systems, including CHAMP’s Cargospot suite.
WFS has already deployed the solution in its Dublin warehouse, where it has reduced AWB processing time from four minutes manually to 30 seconds using CHAMP A2Z Scan.
CHAMP Cargosystems and WFS collaborated in testing and refining CHAMP A2Z Scan to ensure it meets the operational requirements of ground handling. The solution automates AWB data extraction into WFS’ cargo management system, Cargospot Handling, eliminating manual processes.
The transition to digital document processing saves time, reduces errors, and supports sustainability by removing paper-based workflows.
Lucas Fernandez, VP Innovation & Insight at CHAMP, said, “CHAMP A2Z Scan is our first 100% AI-based product and will drive enormous efficiencies in ground handling operations.”
Adam Brownson, IT Programmes and Business Relationships Manager – EMEAA at WFS, said, “We look forward to embracing CHAMP A2Z Scan at key stations in our EMEAA network and are already seeing measurably positive results from its use in our Dublin warehouse.”
