SUMMARY:LAUNCH EVENT - New BIFA Advisory Body for Heathrow Matters
DESCRIPTION:Working closely with BT\, BIFA is proud to announce the formation of a new advisory body focussing on the modernisation of freight systems which facilitate the sharing of information amongst the key stakeholders. The group will also work with Heathrow Airport to represent the freight forwarding community in discussions around the development of the Heathrow cargo centre widely known as the ‘Horseshoe’. \nThe group will support the industry through the massive changes planned for the airport’s cargo terminal. This 8–10-year project is going to take some effort and BIFA is at the heart of the change. \nIf you are interested in finding out more about the advisory body with a view to taking part in this project\, join us at the launch meeting to be held on Tuesday 29th April 10.00am – 2 pm at the BT Tower\, London. \nWho can attend this event? \nThis event is for BIFA members using Heathrow Airport cargo facilities. Attendees should have an in-depth understanding of the current flow of cargo and data\, and be able to contribute to the ongoing development of AIS and the redevelopment of the cargo area. \nCan I bring a colleague? \nEach person wishing to attend the event should register individually. In order to allow as many BIFA member companies to be represented\, please limit registrations to a maximum of 2 per company. \nWhat should I bring with me? \nAccess to the BT Tower is security controlled. You will need to bring your passport on the day. \n  \nRegister HERE to join us at this meeting if you can commit to helping BIFA and our industry shape the forwarder-airline-airport interface. \nDue to BT Tower security requirements\, registration to attend this meeting will close at 12-noon on Friday 25th April.
