Future of Mail by Air Initiative;Required changes Starting point Forecasting & Booking
Of what needs to be collected from where and when to be collected and delivered
Operations events accurately recorded in EDI messages Consolidate pieces in equipment to reduce subsequent
scanning: Nesting Handover events clearly specified and measured:
electronic POA and POD EDI messages and systems to be adjusted;
e.g. use Cargo System for Mail tracking/management Centralized solutions to avoid costs in adjusting
processes and systems

Check potential cost evasive measures when implementing new functionalities:
Posts use IPC forecasting tool for capacity reservation
Consider booking portals to avoid cost of new mail specific interface to capacity reservation systems
Airlines use IPC Mail registration device for POA and POD
Link CAPE Vision and Cargo 2000 to obtain information from cargo monitoring systems
Consider use of existing Central Accounting Systems
