Unisys to optimise cargo efficiency for MASkargo

MASkargo, the cargo arm of Malaysia Airlines, officially known as ‘MAB Kargo’ (Malaysia Airlines Berhad Cargo), has awarded Unisys a contract to provide its logistics optimisation solution to significantly enhance the cargo carrier’s operational efficiency, capacity utilisation and service delivery.

The Unisys Logistics Optimization™ solution turns complex data into strategic insights by leveraging diverse computing methods and pre-trained AI models to optimise load utilisation, routing and inventory for air cargo, ground handlers, and freight forwarders.

MASkargo is facing challenges with time-consuming planning and loading processes that result in underutilised space on flights, missed revenue opportunities, and even damage to shipments.

Mark Jason Thomas, chief executive of MASkargo, said: “Investing in advanced technologies like Unisys Logistics Optimization will allow us to cement our position as an industry leader. The solution’s ability to replan in near-real-time gives us the agility to manage disruptions and maximise our assets.”

By using the Unisys Logistics Optimization solution, MASkargo aims to: empower its sales team to proactively fill planes to drive additional revenue; reduce costs associated with ground handler labour; limit claims, damages, and the risk of non-compliance due to human error; and improve fuel efficiency and minimise its carbon footprint.

Chris Arrasmith, senior vice president of enterprise computing solutions at Unisys, said: “Our Logistics Optimization solution is perfect for MAB Kargo, addressing their air cargo challenges for faster decision-making and capacity optimisation.

“By leveraging our 40+ years of experience and a deep understanding of air cargo processes, our solution is making a significant impact in this competitive industry.”
