Sodexi, one of France's leading pioneers of the EDI revolution in Air Transport, has developed a system for total electronic processing of air cargo shipments.
France's newly appointed minister of overseas trade, Herv' Novelli, visited the Sodexi facility at Paris CDG Airport, accompanied by the director General of Customs at Roissy Michel Boudet. They used the occasion to announce that as from 2008, a new IT procedure would be introduced to replace the old paper based administration for exports. This long awaited system will be capable of running the entire transport process from the original order through to delivery of goods.
Michel Boudet and Jean Francois Bouilhaguet, Managing Director of Sodexi, presented the latest version of the Sodexi designed system entitled DELTA X which allows the full treatment of the process from handling, through automatic Customs clearance to final delivery. The elimination of slow and complicated traditional processing has been an industry objective for considerable time.
Sodexi, part of the Air France cargo network, provides fast, efficient handling of Express cargo at its computer controlled airside facility at Paris CDG airport. Apart from traffic emanating from the Air France network, the company handles the Equation service for all Skyteam members as well as handling many other airlines plus FedEx, TNT, DHL, Chronopost and various specialist express forwarders. Another feature is the unique Express supermarket where customers and partners work within the Sodexi building, often sharing staff. The company, under the direction of Jean-Francois Bouilhaguet, has been a leader in innovation and willingness to introduce new ideas and technology for improving speed and efficiency.
