Next-generation air cargo management solutions are emerging as a true path to supply chain integration. With integrated shipment data access and storage, Cargo2000 and e-freight support, standardized workflow concepts, and seamless interfaces, these solutions are showing potential for transforming the very way that air cargo does its business. Looking at examples of digitization from other industries we will chart a course for air cargo digitization, explain why it is an imperative, and investigate how digitization will allow us to re-imagine air cargo possibilities.
