American Airlines Cargo has taken another major step forward in the digitalization of its cargo operations by deploying IBS Software’s latest iPartner Customer (iPC) solution to allow seamless, fast integration with leading digital marketplace WebCargo, a Freightos Group company.

IBS Software’s iPartner Customer platform is equipped with out-of-the-box APIs that allow faster integration of airline cargo sales and distribution offerings. The deployment allows American Airlines Cargo to take advantage of the business opportunities provided by WebCargo, ultimately delivering enhanced reach to a wider customer base. iPC’s real-time data exchange empowers American Airlines Cargo to define and better control its distribution strategy by providing critical features such as smart filtering and configurable business rules.

“At American Airlines Cargo we are 100% committed to driving operational excellence through digital technology. Working with IBS Software on our integration with WebCargo enables us to provide our customers with an enhanced digital booking experience and access to the real-time rates and capacity that WebCargo offers, as well as expand our reach to new customers,” said Roger Samways, Vice President Commercial for American Airlines Cargo. “We’re excited to continue our partnership with IBS Software and tap into their unrivaled experience and expertise as we both aim to drive growth in the air cargo sector through digitalization.”

“Modernizing the air cargo industry through digital technology is critical to its continued growth, and American Airlines Cargo is a trailblazer. We are thrilled to further our partnership with them with this exciting new venture as they continue their journey to transform the service and experience they provide customers,” commented Ashok Rajan, Head of Cargo & Logistics Solutions at IBS Software.
