Participant users and roles
INFr8 runs currently at Frankfurt Airport. Participants represent the entire air cargo supply chain. These include the airline Lufthansa Cargo, the handlings agent LUG, well-known representatives of the pharmaceutical industry and many forwarders.
The shipping portal is set up for international use and is not limited to Frankfurt Airport or other specific locations. This offers infinite possibilities for participants to use the portal according to their own needs.
Your advantages using INFr8:
as a shipper ...
Your shipment can be flown without delays or additional costs when you provide your transport partners (carrier to recipient) with quality-ensured data as early as possible. INFr8 accepts the data from your in-house system and processes it in such a way that your transport partners can also process and edit the data in their own systems - without any extra work entering data. Installing and working with INFr8 is easy and your shipment can be tracked all the way to the destination airport in real time.
as a forwarder ...
Speed up your processes and cut down on errors now that you’ll no longer need to enter dangerous goods data manually. By using the INFr8 web application or the interface to your in-house system, you’ll receive quality-ensured data from your customers, which you can then add to and edit directly. Flight information, which you can supplement either via web application or via messages from your DGD system, helps to complete the process. The eDGD is then automatically or manually transferred to the GHA. The sooner the GHA receives the information, the better they can prepare for your driver's arrival, shorten the LAT and give you immediate feedback if necessary. You can receive this information by e-mail, ticker message in the web application, on your mobile device as a push message, or directly in your in-house system. The shipment can be tracked in real time, all the way through to the destination airport.
as a handling agent / GHA ...
You’ll streamline your processes and reduce errors by receiving up-to-the-minute information about upcoming dangerous goods deliveries in your own system an also in the INFr8 web application. This offers you more flexibility in planning and saves time. You’ll no longer need to wait until after the driver arrives to enter the dangerous goods data. As soon as the forwarder has booked with the airline, you can expect to receive the data about the shipper and be able to check it, provide feedback if necessary, and prepare everything in advance of the driver's arrival.
