Datalex Consulting Services clients include...
British Airways
Datalex provided British Airways IM Commercial World Cargo Systems with a remote development facility in Dublin. This facility was used to exchange data between the Cargo Centre system and BA80, the existing TPF-based cargo system, and to develop new applications and modify existing functionality on BA80. Datalex also participated in the design and development of European Monetary Union, US Customs and Y2K projects.
KLM Royal Dutch Airlines
