When an original design manufacturer (ODM) for laptop computers needed to move urgent new product introduction (NPI) parts to Taiwan for final assembly, timing was nonnegotiable. With factories in China and Vietnam feeding production in Taiwan, their inbound flow of motherboards, server parts, and other components had to land on schedule to protect manufacturing lead times and product launch windows.
The challenge intensified when air capacity to Taiwan tightened significantly. Limited space meant higher risk of missed flights, volatile pricing, and delayed deliveries. The ODM shipper needed a partner who could move quickly, secure space reliably, and provide flight options that aligned with target delivery dates.
In just three hours, AIT’s logistics professionals in Taipei responded with rapid, lane-specific flight planning and quote execution, designing a solution to meet the customer’s required delivery window.
Rather than defaulting to a single carrier, AIT evaluated airline options and schedules to optimize arrival timing and identified an advantage in selecting an airline with a daily departure schedule. That timing enabled freight to arrive in Taiwan around midnight, positioning the shipment for customs clearance by noon the next day and keeping production timelines intact.
Execution required the same urgency on the Vietnam-Taiwan route, where capacity constraints threatened timely departure for six pallets. AIT’s local team in Vietnam worked directly with the airline to prioritize handling and protect the shipment’s schedule.
Across both lanes, AIT maintained proactive monitoring, checking flight options immediately upon booking and also tracking shipment status frequently to ensure consistent visibility throughout the two- to three-day timeline.
The results were tangible: the customer reported strong satisfaction with the team’s responsive solutions and invited AIT to participate in its quarterly RFQ process.

When a leading technology company received a last-minute request to move 30 pallets of server racks—more than 10 tons of cargo total—from Taipei to San Francisco over a weekend, most available flights were already full.
Other forwarders proposed splitting the freight across multiple flights and house air waybills (HAWBs), but that approach introduced risk to the delivery deadline and complicated tracking for the customer’s leadership team, who were monitoring the project closely.
Leveraging long-standing airline relationships and active capacity management, AIT’s technology logistics professionals canvassed carriers for a same-flight solution that balanced speed, space and cost.
Within two hours of the initial call, the AIT team presented multiple options with clear trade-offs on transit time, price and risk. The customer selected an option that consolidated all 30 pallets on one flight with a single HAWB structure, avoiding the complexity of split routing while simplifying visibility, handoffs and delivery planning.
AIT closely coordinated pre-departure handling, reconfirming load plans and unitization to protect the server racks and ensure all pieces were tendered and accepted together. Throughout the move, AIT and the airline jointly monitored milestones and provided proactive status updates, keeping the stakeholders informed from cargo acceptance through arrival.
The final result? On-time delivery in four days, despite peak-capacity constraints and a weekend departure requirement.

The customer’s concerns? Previous experiences with other providers had resulted in late deliveries, cargo damage and even lost freight. Additionally, they were looking for a more sustainable shipping option.
AIT’s teams in China and the United States responded to the challenge by ensuring strict chain-of-custody management for the business-critical air and ground shipment. They also implemented a more sustainable, secure packaging method for the sensitive cargo.
Rather than shipping with traditional, single-use wooden crates, the team used environmentally friendly crates that can be reused repeatedly. Every shipment in one of these crates saves two trees from being cut down and a single tree can offset as much as a ton of CO2 in its lifetime!
Plus, the compact, collapsible design of these reusable crate is ultra-tough and includes built-in real-time tracking and condition monitoring.
