American Airlines Cargo
Client Profile
American Airlines Cargo is a division of American Airlines. We specialize in air freight transportation, providing services for shipping various types of cargo, including perishable goods, pets, pharmaceuticals, and high-value items. AA Cargo offers a vast network of destinations worldwide, making us a popular choice for businesses and individuals needing reliable and efficient cargo shipping solutions.
Project Description
AA Cargo's pricing department currently handles a high volume of ad-hoc pricing requests from customers. Manual evaluation, considering factors like shipment details, market dynamics, capacity, demand, and other variables, is time-consuming, requiring 20-40 minutes per request. We seek an automated solution and streamlined process to expedite pricing, ensuring optimal rates for both customers and AA Cargo.
Skills
We anticipate that a combination of technical (DS/ML, SQL, optimization), analytical (Statistics/Forecasting, visualization, etc.), and strong business acumen would be essential. Ability to work effectively as a team and strong communication skills are also important to the success of this project.
