Automate document processing with CHAMP A2Z Scan for efficiency and accuracy

Transform air cargo operations with CHAMP A2Z Scan, reducing errors and saving time by digitalizing paper-based processes using AI (Artificial Intelligence) and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology.

Air cargo’s digitalization journey begins by turning analogue procedures into digitalized workflows. That may sound obvious, but many air cargo processes are still heavily reliant on paper documents and manual effort which inevitably causes inefficiencies and leaves the supply chain vulnerable to human error.

For example, handling vast amounts of paperwork - such as Air Waybills (AWBs), invoices, and shipment records - slows down operations, increases errors, and leads to costly delays. By reducing the number of paper-based processes, we have the opportunity to digitalize at both a business and an industry level.  

CHAMP is on a mission to automate 100% of the documents handled by the air cargo industry and is already making great strides with CHAMP A2Z Scan. 

Exploring automated document processing 

We designed CHAMP A2Z Scan in partnership with Metamaze to digitalize the processing of paper AWBs. It works by giving airlines and ground handling agents the ability to upload digital AWBs to a specially designed AI scanner to turns the image into text and compare data automatically.

CHAMP A2Z Scan:

• Reduces average human error rate
• Achieves significant time savings
• Helps prevent air cargo shipment delays
• Generates customer cost savings

CHAMP A2Z Scan can turn a 10–15-minute manual task into a 2–3-minute automated process, achieving time savings of up to 85%.  

Next-level accuracy and efficiency 

CHAMP A2Z Scan leverages Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technologies which enable the accurate extraction of data from paper Air Waybills as well as allowing the system to learn from this data. As the system grows, CHAMP A2Z Scan will be able to adopt and input corrections made by back-office agents to the documents, further reducing time and labor spent amending errors. 

Thanks to CHAMP’s open cargo platform and leading Application Programming Interface (API) program, CHAMP A2Z Scan automatically looks up any corresponding AWB data in your cargo management system and automates the comparison between the two, highlighting any discrepancies for manual adjustments.
