Wiremind Cargo and TAP Air Cargo have advanced their partnership by integrating SKYPALLET with CHAMP’s Cargospot cargo management system. A SKYPALLET customer since OCT22, TAP Air Cargo has now embedded SKYPALLET further into its capacity optimization process through an API integration with Cargospot Airline. This allows TAP Air Cargo staff to transfer air waybill data automatically from Cargospot to SKYPALLET for shipment evaluation and flight planning. The integration optimizes flight plans, performing co-loadability checks, segregation, T-ULD, and more, while ensuring that Cargospot remains the source of truth for updates such as booking changes, which are quickly reflected in SKYPALLET.
The automation eliminates the need for manual input and reduces flight planning time from 15–30 minutes to mere seconds. Wiremind Cargo, a member of CargoTech, collaborated with CHAMP Cargosystems to establish the integration, utilizing CHAMP’s API ecosystem.
Nathanaël de Tarade, Chief Executive Officer of Wiremind Cargo, stated: “Digitalization brings significant process efficiencies as the ongoing success of our SKYPALLET product proves: a single solution that, on average, helps improve flight load factors by up to 5-10%. The ability to integrate our solutions seamlessly into customers’ existing software is a product priority for us at Wiremind Cargo, to help unlock process efficiencies and maximize the useability of our solutions. We are particularly happy to launch this solution together with TAP Air Cargo, who has been a valued partner over the past year and a half, and CHAMP to demonstrate the potential of collaboration within our industry.”
Rita Rosário Garcia, Product and Service Director of TAP Air Cargo, revealed: “It was always our plan to integrate SKYPALLET with our cargo reservation system, Cargospot, since we engaged Wiremind. Both systems were API ready and there is always a step change in benefits when you are able to support a business process with a seamless technical integration. Once the technical integration was completed, Wiremind Cargo’s implementation team supported us with the transition and change management, which enabled us to focus on our core business and maximize the value we get from SKYPALLET.” Nemil Sheriff, Senior Product Manager – Cargo Portals & APIs, explained: “APIs are at the heart of Cargospot’s open and collaborative approach. With our extensive integration capabilities — which include one of the industry’s most comprehensive API portfolios — we empower our clients to innovate and rapidly create new solutions that transform their businesses. This approach is perfectly demonstrated by the integration of SKYPALLET with Cargospot Airline. We are delighted to see this integration come to life, as it will enable TAP Air Cargo to leverage the power of Cargospot for a highly efficient capacity optimization process.”
