Bangalore, Nov. 5 Austrian Cargo, the cargo division of Austrian Airlines, has chosen IBS’ iCargo to replace its legacy cargo management system as well as its cargo revenue accounting system.

iCargo will enable Austrian Cargo’s business growth in the next decade by providing a single efficient end-to-end IT solution for its current and future business needs.

Austrian Cargo has opted for iCargo’s hosted version iCargoNet that is based on the latest ‘Software as a Service’ (SaaS) model. iCargoNet for Austrian Cargo will be hosted at IBS’s data centre in Thiruvananthapuram that will also provide Austrian Cargo’s business users a 24x7 global help desk, said Mr Akshay Shrivastava, Senior Vice-President and Global Head of IBS’ Cargo Line of Business

Commenting on the selection of iCargoNet, Mr Thomas Bernardy, Director Cargo Processes & Systems, Austrian Cargo, said: “We, at Austrian, are very proud of our efficient processes and our focus on quality of service to our customers. Finding an alternative to our aging systems, that had served us well for a very long time, was a tough task.

“We are pleased that in iCargo we found a solution that not only met our current and future business needs, but IBS also provided us a proven transition path from legacy to the modern technology platform, that too in a very cost effective manner. IBS and iCargo made the task of selecting the IT solution that will enable and support our business in future simpler for us.”

It has over hundred customers for its range of products and services catering to major airlines, airports, oil and gas companies, seaports and cruise lines.
