About the client
The client is the cargo handling division of one of the largest Airlines Group.
Challenges
The client group carries more than 897, 000 tonnes of freight and mail in a year – equivalent to 1680 Kgs loaded every min. To handle this, a separate Cargo Support division takes care of all support activities to keep the IT system up and running. Owing to the complex nature of the cargo business and unprecedented challenges of cost pressures, the client wanted to implement a new IT Management solution for their cargo operations. Their objective for the transformation was:
- Achieve economic efficiencies
- Performance improvements
- Operational advantages
- The major challenges were:
- Legacy Technology Stack
- Architecture / Infrastructure improvements
- Support Processes were not streamlined
- Different ITSM Tools used in different locations
- Multiple Technology Stack
