CMA CGM Air Cargo has joined CargoAi’s digital allotment manager, making its allotments bookable through CargoMART, CargoAi’s rate management and e-booking platform.
The move gives CMA CGM and its freight forwarding partners access to a digital solution for managing recurring capacity agreements, including allotments, block space agreements (BSAs), pre-bookings and other regular capacity arrangements.
CargoMART is designed for freight forwarders working with multiple airlines. Instead of handling separate processes for each carrier, forwarders can submit a single allotment file across participating airlines. The platform also supports advanced file uploads directly from their transportation management systems (TMS), alongside advanced tracking capabilities.
The integration also extends to CargoMART’s Strategic Hub, where CMA CGM and its freight forwarding partners can access detailed allotment reporting. This provides visibility into allocation utilisation, quality through the FAP, and price competitiveness.
By giving both airlines and forwarders access to the same data, the platform is intended to support more constructive, fact-based discussions while helping both sides manage allocations and pre-bookings more effectively.
“Allotment and recurring booking automation are some of the clearest examples of how digitization removes friction from air cargo without changing the commercial agreements airlines and forwarders already have in place,” said Matt Petot, Founder & CEO at CargoAi.
“With CMA CGM now live, we are giving their forwarder partners a faster and more transparent way to manage guaranteed capacity, while reducing repetitive operational workload for both sides month after month but more importantly a full reporting capabilities so they can transparently manage their allocation with airlines,” he added.
