The first stage of deploying Kale’s GALAXY cargo management system has automated the shipment triggering and document acceptance process to streamline processes that previously relied on manual data entry or were not harmonised.
GALAXY is being deployed in phases to optimise the digital integration of existing systems and processes so as not to disrupt cargo operations.
In the second phase, handheld terminals will be introduced for key warehouse functions including the recording and live reporting of shipments arriving at customs.
Atsushi Kato, Management Advisor at CTKS Company, said: “Kale has consistently led progress in air cargo digitisation and digitalisation globally, and this launch is its strategic entry into the Japanese market. At CKTS, we are excited to use the capabilities of Kale’s flagship GALAXY system and look forward to benefiting from its advanced functionalities for many years.”
Vineet Malhotra, Co-Founder and Director of Kale Logistics Solutions, added: “GALAXY has been a critical asset to a wide range of our partners, and it is now gaining more ground in the far east and transforming ground handling operations in Japan. Customising proprietary messages is a major milestone for Kale as a digital trade facilitator - we look forward to further digitising the CKTS operations in the deployment phases to come.”
