Some Air Cargo customers feedback! Other modes are moving faster We need a Cargo cloud where everybody is connected we need more visibility and transparency Air cargo processes have not been modernized over the last twenty years Air cargo is often a black space Shipper s voice: European Shipper Council White Paper 2014 World Cargo Symposium Shipper Panel, March 2015
Why Air Cargo full potential limited? Cross-border challenges is limiting Air Cargo potential (source Doing Business index, World Bank)
What do we do about it? Digitized the Air Cargo process alike for the Passenger!
What do we do about it? e-freight is an industry-wide program that aims to build an end-to-end paperless transportation process for air cargo made possible with regulatory framework, modern electronic messages and high quality of data e-freight is part of the StB Cargo program aiming at making air cargo easier, smarter and faster. The program portfolio holds 5 projects with the objective to accelerate change in the areas of digitization, visibility and safety e-freight & e-awb Digital Cargo Interactive Cargo Smart Facility ACID - Air Cargo Incidents Database

e-awb adoption / main challenges In December 2016, the global e-awb penetration reached 48.9% on the feasible trade lanes, a shortfall of 7.1 p.p. against the industry target of 56%. Main challenges are: 2016 target Actual 56% Regulatory constraints e-awb is not possible in all airports and all trade lanes due to regulatory limitations Lack of harmonization e-awb procedures are not harmonized between freight forwarders, airlines and ground handling agents in key airports where e-awb is live 48.9% Technology limitation Many of the SME forwarders do not have the technical capability/edi enabled systems to enable them to transmit shipment data to airlines Some large forwarders face the same issue: their local branches are the result of SME forwarders acquisition and their IT system have not been aligned with the rest of the company Complex process Perceived complexity to do e-awb for forwarders dealing with multiple airlines Maturity threshold Some markets reached a certain level of maturity where major actors (airlines / freight forwarders) already achieved the biggest potential Back to Table of Contents 25
e-awb adoption / supporting initiatives In order to address the e-awb adoption challenges and to accelerate the growth in the penetration rate, the following supporting initiatives have been identified in 2016 and will be continued and strengthen in 2017 Expand number of trade lanes where e-freight and e-awb are possible Continue the government supported e-freight initiatives in key locations Harmonize e-awb procedures in key airports across forwarders airlines/gha Complement the list of SOPs at e-airports (especially airports to be included in the 2017 eawb360 roadmap) Facilitate adoption by SME forwarders Launch on November 8 th of an e-awb desktop solution for Small and Medium sized Freight Forwarders (eawblink), low-cost alternative to existing solutions Provide implementation guidance and materials Develop an implementation playbook to support the adoption of e-awb Coordination efforts of industry in key e- airports Strengthen the e-awb penetration rate in the existing eawb360 airports Deploy eawb360 initiatives at additional airports (in particular in Europe) Back to Table of Contents 26
2017 e-awb industry target: 62% Based on the historical achievement, the forecasting model shows that an e-awb penetration rate of 62% can be achieved by end of 2017 Accelerate trend leading to a global e-awb penetration rate of 62% - corresponds to the e- AWB adoption pace under the condition of successful achievement of supporting initiatives Accelerate +1.3 p.p. per month Industry effort 62% by end of 2017 51% by end of 2017 Build +1.2 p.p. per month Mature / Sustain +0.6 p.p. per month Mature trend leading to a global e-awb penetration rate of 51% - corresponds to the natural e-awb adoption pace, without any specific supporting initiative in place. The slow pace is mainly due to maturity of certain markets Launch +0.3 p.p. per month Back to Table of Contents 27
