Connecting Fragmented Supply Chain Information
The air cargo industry is facing a significant challenge in connecting fragmented data across the supply chain, according to Accenture Cargo’s product growth lead, Shanmugam Thangavelu. Speaking at Aviation Connect in Athens, Thangavelu highlighted the need for stakeholders to share and reconcile information, citing the example of ground handlers receiving multiple versions of shipment information. The industry’s adoption of IATA’s ONE Record standard remains incomplete, leaving an opportunity for AI to help bridge the gap. This was reported by The Loadstar.
