Magic Software Signs New Deal with Çelebi, a Leading Provider of Ground Handling Services
Magic Software Subsidiary, Hermes Logistics Technologies, to Deliver its State-of-the-Art Cargo Management System to Çelebi
OR YEHUDA, ISRAEL; December 2, 2010 - Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (Nasdaq: MGIC), a global provider of cloud and on-premise enabled application platform and business integration solutions, announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, HERMES Logistics Technologies, a leading provider of air cargo management solutions, has signed a purchase agreement with Çelebi to implement its state-of-the-art cargo management system.
Commenting on winning this new customer, Amit Ben-Zvi, CEO of HERMES Logistics Technologies, said, “We are very happy to extend our customer reach to include Çelebi, a large ground handling provider on a global scale. This new deal highlights the unique benefits of our innovative offering to the cargo handling market, providing increased efficiency and quality to all of our customers.”
The HERMES system, powered by Magic Software's award-winning application platform, will enable Çelebi to leverage the advantages of mobile handheld terminals to track and manage cargo in real-time within its cargo hubs. HERMES will also allow Çelebi to employ proactive service level management of all shipments with its built-in warnings and automatic reminders to operational staff.
With a presence in 28 airports worldwide, Çelebi's ground handling operations can be found in Turkey, India, Hungary and most recently a new facility based within Europe's third busiest airport, Frankfurt International.
The introduction of this additional site to Çelebi's portfolio prompted senior management to embrace a new technology solution in the form of the superior ground handling software: HERMES. Installation of the software will allow the new Frankfurt operation to compete at the highest levels, providing the organization with the latest business process support, demanded in today's competitive world of cargo handling.
With architecture and strategy phases now complete, the go-live date is set for early 2011, giving the teams at Çelebi and HERMES time to provide staff with detailed information on the system including a revised set of working procedures. With future plans and ambitions set at the highest levels, Çelebi's intentions are to roll out the HERMES solution within additional facilities, ensuring consistency of excellence throughout each and every warehouse.
