07:22 AM EDT, 04/10/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Descartes Systems Group ( DSGX ) said Thursday its Air Messaging solution has streamlined the transmission of air shipment data, according to the International Air Transport Association's (IATA) ONE Record messaging standard.

IATA's ONE Record initiative aims to help airlines, their partners and service providers digitize air cargo messaging services by January 1, 2026, replacing the traditional exchange of documents using Cargo-IMP and Cargo XML standards.

The Descartes Air Messaging supports a broad range of data standards and message specifications to share air shipment information across regional and global operations, the company said.

"We're pleased to support the ONE Record standard," said Scott Sangster, general manager of logistics services providers at Descartes. "Air industry customers have long relied on Descartes to provide a strong bridge with their trading partners in order to exchange air shipment information using traditional messaging standards."

"IATA's ONE Record project presents a new opportunity to strengthen those relationships by supporting new ways in which air cargo data is shared and managed to streamline processes, reduce costs, and enhance the customer experience in air cargo operations," Sangster added.

Descartes' share price jumped 8.2% on Wednesday to $145.02 on the TSX.
