The future of cargo accounting systems can be seen in the Application Service Provider (ASP) model, and Cargo Data Management has been a pioneer in advancing this cost-effective, worry-free way to maintain an advanced cargo accounting software system without the up-front investment.
Thanks to the Internet, this type of service is now possible. All the Cargo Data Management software resides on our servers, and our customers simply access their secure, private website via their Internet connections. This secure website is their entry into their own dedicated air cargo accounting system, which is maintained on our data center in Dallas but could be used by any airline anywhere in the world.
This solution works for any size cargo carrier, and is ideal for smaller airlines that want the in-house processing of their air waybills, yet lack the volume of business to justify installation of their own cargo software systems and necessary hardware. The entire operation is transparent to all users - for all they know, the servers could be in the next room, thanks to the excellent response time and system performance.
As a customer of our ASP service, you enter your AWB data, print the invoices right on the printer in your office, receive customer payments and apply them to accounts receivable, and prepare a complete month-end summary. The processing is done in our data center, and the results are available on your local printer.
With our ASP service, your company is billed a small amount for each transaction, and you eliminate the need for personnel to maintain your own network-based software system. Your company is always using the latest version of our software, running on the most advanced and reliable servers available today. With our strict security, your data always remains confidential.
