Who We Are

Enterprise Logistics
Data Specialists

At Precise BPO Solution, we specialize in airway bill data entry and air cargo documentation for freight forwarders, airlines, customs brokers, and supply chain providers worldwide. Our experts capture, verify, and structure every waybill record to support shipment tracking, billing, reconciliation, and regulatory compliance. Beyond traditional AWB entry, we also provide AI data labeling services for freight and logistics datasets — supporting predictive routing, cargo classification, and automation workflows.

With 17+ years of logistics domain expertise, we bring a mature air waybill outsourcing model built for accuracy, scale, and consistency. As an AWB data entry company, when you outsource airway bill processing to us you get a single accountable partner rather than a patchwork of freelancers. We serve clients across the US, UK, Canada, EU, Middle East, APAC, and LATAM — and have processed 990M+ total records, including 45M+ air waybills digitized across MAWB and HAWB formats.

Our airway bill data entry and AWB outsourcing services help enterprises cut manual effort and operational costs while keeping shipping documentation audit-ready. Trained teams follow structured, multi-level human validation workflows — giving your operations the data integrity and supply chain visibility they depend on. We also offer document data conversion services and AI data labeling services for clients with broader digitization needs.

As part of our online data entry services, we cover end-to-end cargo document digitization — including cargo manifests, consignment notes, electronic air waybills, freight invoices, and electronic bill of lading data entry. Every document is validated for completeness, customs compliance, and delivery accuracy, then structured as ERP-ready datasets precisely matched to your field mapping and system requirements.

What is an Air Waybill (AWB) — Precise BPO Solution
Understanding Air Cargo Documentation

What Is an
Air Waybill (AWB)?

An Air Waybill (AWB) — also known as an air consignment note — is a non-negotiable transport document issued by an airline or freight forwarder that accompanies goods shipped via international or domestic air cargo shipments. It serves as proof of shipment, a contract of carriage, and a key record for tracking and regulatory compliance. The unique 11-digit airline prefix and serial number on every waybill enables real-time shipment tracking across the entire cargo journey.

Following IATA-standardized formats, these transport records ensure uniformity and accuracy across global logistics networks. The industry has increasingly migrated to electronic air waybills (e-AWB), replacing paper-based documentation with digital data exchange — and Precise BPO Solution processes both legacy paper documents and e-AWB formats with equal accuracy, delivering structured datasets ready for ERP and TMS ingestion.

Each shipment record contains critical details including:

Shipper & Consignee Information
Origin & Destination Airports
Carrier and Flight Routing
Cargo Description & Weight
Freight Charges & Declared Values
Customs Notes & Handling Codes
IATA Handling Codes (PER, DGR)
Authorization & Audit Signatures

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers on AWB scope, formats, accuracy, security alignment, scalability, regions served, SLA, turnaround, and pricing for global clients.

Air cargo documentation covers the digitization and validation of shipment records — Air Waybills (AWB), air consignment notes, cargo manifests, and freight invoices. AWB processing converts these documents into structured digital records that support shipment tracking, customs clearance, billing, and carrier reconciliation. The result is clean, system-ready data your team can act on immediately.
Precise BPO processes Master Air Waybills (MAWB), House Air Waybills (HAWB), consignment records, shipment manifests, freight invoices, handling codes, and routing details. Both handwritten and electronic documents are accepted. Output is delivered in your preferred format — CSV, Excel, XML, or direct ERP/TMS entry — standardized and validated before delivery.
Yes. We deliver structured AWB data directly into ERP platforms, TMS, WMS, and custom client portals — or as flat files (CSV, XML, JSON) for your team to import. We match your field mapping and naming conventions, so the data drops in cleanly without post-processing. This works well for freight forwarders, airlines, and e-commerce operators managing high shipment volumes.
We use a three-tier maker-checker model: the operator captures the data, a second specialist independently verifies it, then a QA lead spot-checks the batch. Duplicate detection and field-level validation rules run throughout. This consistently delivers 99.8%+ accuracy — verified across tens of millions of AWBs.
We accept scanned PDFs, TIFF images, handwritten paper AWBs, Excel/CSV exports, and electronic system data. Handwritten documents — including older MAWB formats and non-standard international templates — are handled by specialists trained in transcription. All inputs are normalized to a consistent output structure regardless of the source format.
Yes. Our current daily capacity is 60,000–75,000 AWBs, with the ability to scale further for peak periods — making us a reliable high-volume air cargo outsourcing partner for freight forwarders, airlines, and logistics hubs. Multi-shift offshore teams operate 24/7, so time-sensitive batches — including same-day hub clearances and backlog projects — are handled without SLA compromise. We've cleared backlogs of 60,000+ AWBs in under three weeks for enterprise clients.
Absolutely. We are aligned with ISO 27001, HIPAA, and GDPR standards, utilizing encrypted data transfer and secure terminal access to protect proprietary shipping information. All processing occurs within controlled, monitored environments with strict access controls, audit trails, and confidentiality agreements in place for every engagement.
Pricing depends on document volume, complexity, and turnaround requirements. We offer three models: per document (best for variable volumes), per hour (best for mixed task types), and dedicated FTE (best for ongoing daily operations). We'll recommend the most cost-effective structure after reviewing your project — contact us for a tailored quote.
Yes. We offer a free sample project of up to 50 airway bills to demonstrate our accuracy, turnaround speed, and technical integration capabilities. This allows you to evaluate our work quality, team responsiveness, and output format compatibility before committing to a full engagement. Contact us to get started.
