Tokyo International Exhibition Centre is locally called the Big Sight and it opened in 1996. Situated in Tokyo Bay, it is the largest exhibition centre within Japan and certainly the best known in Tokyo with its iconic conference tower which is eight storeys high. The total exhibition space of the Tokyo International Exhibition Centre is over two hundred thousand square metres of which about 35% is inside the building. The exhibition centre has three main areas: - Conference Tower Each section has its own facilities including places to eat and drink, whilst the Conference Tower has a 1,100-seat reception hall, complemented by exhibition halls of varying sizes. On the second floor is the Entrance Plaza which leads through the entrance hall to the exhibition halls and the Exhibition Plaza. The venue is quite impressive with one area for example which is composed of 10 conference rooms some, of which, can be joined together to create a larger space. On the seventh floor is a 1,000-seat conference theatre, complemented by three conference rooms. Floor eight, above, offers another five conference rooms. The East Exhibition Hall has an amazing two-tiered 600-metre long galleria, which has numerous exhibition halls leading off. Under the East Exhibition Hall is an underground car park. Three storeys high, the glass-roofed galleria has a moving walkway, food outlets, and numerous other amenities. The West Exhibition Hall has a central two-tiered atrium and four internal halls. Two halls occupy the first floor and have a number of meeting rooms that can be joined together to create a bigger space.

IBS Group announces the signing of a deal with Tokyo International Air Cargo Terminal Ltd (TIACT Ltd.) for implementation of the CTO (Cargo Terminal Operations) module of iCargo, IBS’ new-generation Cargo Management System. The IBS system will manage the new cargo terminal at Tokyo International Airport, also known as Haneda Airport. Haneda is ranked among the world’s busiest passenger airports and will be the first neutral ground handler to use iCargo’s CTO module. The airport is currently undergoing a major expansion in terms of both capacity & technology and is scheduled to be fully functional by October 2010.
Built on the latest technology, IBS’ CTO system will provide Haneda with an integrated system that will optimize operations, enhance profitability and provide the airport the scalability to manage the increasing volumes of cargo as well as the growth of its business. It will efficiently manage the ground handling and warehousing of all cargo processed through the airport, and provide the tools to significantly improve service levels and productivity.
“We are absolutely delighted that TIACT has opted for IBS’ solution to handle the entire cargo terminal operations especially when the Airport is launching a new cargo terminal,” said VK Mathews, Chairman and CEO, IBS Group, on the occasion. “With Nippon Cargo Airlines (NCA) and All Nippon Airways (ANA), two of Japan’s leading carriers, having already placed their confidence in iCargo to manage their cargo businesses, this deal with TIACT highlights the growing acceptance of IBS’ new-generation cargo solutions in Japan, one of the principal markets for the global air cargo business. We see this as a major opportunity to provide added value to airports’ operations and establish a new standard for the efficient integration of airport cargo terminal operations with the cargo business of airlines,” he added.
On the occasion Mr. Terutake Kato, President and CEO, TIACT Ltd said “Haneda Airport has great potential to become the main portal to Japan in the near future. We chose IBS due to their extensive experience and know-how in the airline cargo industry. We foresee IBS’ system facilitating efficient processes and handling the complex nature of cargo terminal operations .The development of Haneda’s system will be a very big achievement for IBS. We look forward to develop this into a long-term engagement”, says.
iCargo’s CTO module will provide the Haneda airport a wide range of web-enabled features from reserving airway bills to manifesting the shipment on a flight on the export, to receipt of cargo from the airline on the import, to final delivery of the shipment to the consignee. The system provides for guidance and control of trucks, critical to managing influx of transport and supports radio communications through hand-held terminals, thereby improving productivity and service levels. The air cargo facilities provided by the new terminal will give cargo operators easy access and connectivity to central Tokyo. Operating on IBS’ system, TIACT will set new standards in operational efficiency, environmental design and service levels among airports. |
