B&H Worldwide, the-best-in-class, aerospace logistics company and winner of the 2018 BIFA Freight Service award for Supply Chain Management, has secured a three-year contract to manage Travel Service’s entire logistics engineering supply chain exclusively. Travel Services is the largest airline company in the Czech Republic and operates the SmartWings brand alongside charter and private business jet operations.
Under the new contract, which is effective immediately, B&H will expand its relationship with Travel Service to exclusively manage all AOG traffic, time-critical spares and routine shipments. This covers Travel Service’s major operating centres in Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary and a further 400 airports on four continents where the company operates.
B&H will manage the entire shipping process providing a new level of shipment transparency to Travel Service through the use of its unique OnTrack system to provide track & trace and reporting with an option to include full inventory management in the future. The contract will be managed through the B&H London Heathrow Control Tower providing round-the-clock 24/7, 365 service to the customer globally.
