Air Transport International

Air Transport International (ATI) offers a full range of worldwide contract and charter services to air cargo entities, other airlines, major corporations, petroleum services companies, government and military agencies and special interest customers. ATI’s fleet of re-engined DC8 70 series jet freighters is the primary provider of lift for BAX Global’s U.S. air network. These fuel-efficient aircraft are capable of global as well as domestic flights.

ATI’s daily operations include such diverse activities as the movement of thoroughbred racehorses from Europe and Asia to the U.S., field support of on-location movie productions, city to city transportation of touring music and stage shows, relocation of rare animals for aquariums and zoos, and scheduled flights under contract to the U.S. Government, flying personnel and supplies to remote locations around the world.

ATI is licensed by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and is approved by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Department of Transportation to conduct worldwide cargo and passenger operations.

ATI manages its worldwide activities 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, from its headquarters in Little Rock, Arkansas, with a team of 500 dedicated employees for whom safety, service, efficiency and value are interwoven with all aspects of managing the airline.

When your customers include many of the world’s top technology, health care, and industrial companies, you must achieve and maintain the highest standards of service. BAX Global meets that challenge every day.

As a leading provider of international freight transportation and supply chain management services, BAX Global, with revenues of $1.9 billion in 2002, enables its customers to quickly and flexibly enter new global markets while reducing their overall transportation and logistics costs.

BAX Global maintains a global transportation and logistics network with approximately 500 offices in 123 countries. From ocean forwarding and customs brokerage to expedited air freight, BAX Global provides the full array of business-to-business transportation and logistics services. At every point in the process, from the customer’s initial call to freight pickup to final delivery, BAX Global’s 10,000 employees provide outstanding customer service.

From the latest fashions headed for New York and Paris to aircraft parts on their way to a maintenance hub, BAX Global specializes in transporting cargo for customers who value speed, reliability and high levels of cost-efficient service.

BAX Global applies the latest information technologies to gain competitive advantages, and the company shares these advantages with its customers. A prime example is MyBAX, an extranet that empowers customers to track shipments, manage transportation costs and create custom reports based on their specific account information. Domestic shippers in North America can manage their entire transportation and logistics process online – booking shipments, getting rate quotes, preparing shipping labels and maintaining customer and product data. 10,000 customers have registered to use MyBAX in its first 18 months of operation.

For customers who need specialized levels of service, BAX Global provides customized supply chain management services, including inventory management and order fulfillment through the more than 40 integrated logistics facilities it operates worldwide. BAX Global’s ability to supply these services almost anywhere in the world is second to none as demand for international supply chain management services is increasing rapidly. Microsoft Corporation has appointed BAX to design, implement and manage inventory distribution and information processes to improve efficiencies and productivity from suppliers through production to their end customers. BAX provides supply chain services to Microsoft’s OEM Hardware Group in five locations on three continents utilizing a single Warehouse Management System platform. And AGCO Corporation, one of the world’s largest manufacturers, designers and distributors of agricultural equipment has chosen BAX Global as their Lead Logistics Provider for their worldwide supply chain. AGCO’s products are sold in more than 140 countries.

In 2002, BAX Global established several other vendor hubs in Asia and the United States and new supply chain management operations in Europe and South America. The company is also well positioned to benefit from growth of manufacturing operations in China.

Its global presence, mode-neutral transportation network and logistics expertise make BAX Global a formidable competitor in the freight transportation and supply chain management industry. But BAX Global’s most important advantage is its employees’ unwavering commitment to providing the best possible customer service.
