jimbols6 - It is coming in very soon!
Dont know how this is going to be cost effective - In many regional stations, Load Control is one of the areas where time is less spent on. By the time someone would have sent a telex to MAN, they would have had the loadsheet (with a lot less hassel) completed themselves.
So what costs are involved here:
1) The Telephone Call/Telex to MAN
2) An office in MAN for the CLC
3) A member of staff being paid in MAN to do the Loadsheets
4) Someone's time telexing MAN
5) Sita charges for the Loadsheet to be sent to the Station
6) Time spent chasing the loadsheet because the person in MAN is up to their eyes in fuel figures
Is this really cost effective? cant the load control task be given to someone else to add to there duties?
