A successful ONE Record early adoption use case
The challenge: Transitioning to ONE Record involves significant considerations for stakeholders, such as aligning stakeholders and business processes, upgrading technology, allocating resources, and managing change. These efforts require substantial investments in time and money. Depending on their current business conditions, immediate migration to ONE Record might not be feasible or a top priority for all stakeholders.
The solution: To accommodate stakeholders at different stages of ONE Record adoption, we are developing a feature that allows them to continue using their existing legacy messaging systems.
CHAMP will convert these messages to the ONE Record standard as needed. While this approach doesn't offer the full benefits of direct ONE Record adoption, it ensures stakeholders can maintain operations without scrambling for resources in an emergency transition scenario.
The initial focus will be on converting Master Air Waybill (FWB) & House Air Waybill (FHL) messages to ONE Record. These messages typically originate from forwarders and are sent to airlines, who then forward them to their GHAs.
Subsequent phases will include converting ONE Record messages back to FWB & FHL, followed by expanding support to other key messages.
