Aramex goes live with CargoWise globally in a “big bang” approach

Aramex, a leading global provider of comprehensive logistics and transportation solutions, announced today the official go-live of their rollout of WiseTech Global’s integrated logistics execution platform, CargoWise, across its global network.

The CargoWise rollout represents an integral milestone in Aramex’s digital transformation journey that strategically leverages innovative solutions to satisfy evolving customer needs and allows the company to swiftly adapt to changing market conditions. The scope of the implementation will cover the freight forwarding product across all Aramex locations.

Aramex’s unique approach sees CargoWise implemented simultaneously across its worldwide network of 1,200 freight forwarding specialists, spanning Asia, Europe and the Middle East. CargoWise will support Aramex’s freight forwarding and customs operations and enhance the overall user experience for their employees and customers.

Mohammed Sleeq, Chief Digital Officer of Aramex, said: “We are very proud to launch CargoWise through this challenging time in a ‘big bang’ approach. Aramex is rewriting the textbook on implementing a global transport management system on such a large scale, which is a testament to our agility and speed in responding to the global changing environment. We have shortened the development cycle in years and avoided the landscape of operating a mix of legacy and modernised systems.

“Through a single platform, CargoWise provides configurability, automation and real-time visibility across our global freight operations. The results will be a high ramp up of business benefits that will be felt across all the freight community of Aramex,” added Sleeq.

WiseTech Global Founder and CEO, Richard White, said: “This is great achievement by Aramex. We are extremely pleased that CargoWise has successfully been rolled out across Aramex’s extensive global footprint in such a large-scale, coordinated approach. The CargoWise rollout marks an exciting period of digital transformation for Aramex, and it supports their commitment to technological innovation enabling more efficient movement of goods globally.”

Licensed across 160 countries, CargoWise enables logistics service providers to execute highly complex transactions in areas such as freight forwarding, customs clearance, warehousing, shipping, tracking, land transport, e-commerce, and cross-border compliance, allowing them to manage their operations on one database across multiple users, functions, countries, languages, and currencies.
