Every campus needs effective strategies for delivering mail and packages to faculty, staff and students. However, campus mail and student mail often operate on separate systems, leading to inefficient processes. To reach optimal performance, all university distribution workflows should operate on the same system while also running separate processes — keeping everyone who receives mail satisfied with on-time, convenient delivery. With Ricoh's Campus Mail Services, you not only get efficient barcoding and sorting solutions, you get the people, technology and processes you need to streamline every aspect of campus and student mail.

Impress digital natives with a high-tech mail center

 

Help increase student retention with reduced wait times and convenient campus mail.

Today's students expect campuses to use modern technology that keeps things moving quickly and efficiently. It's convenience and instant gratification they're after, and when mailroom employees spend valuable student time issuing mailbox keys, assigning lock combinations or searching for packages while students wait at the counter, the experience becomes burdensome, and the university appears inefficient and outdated.

Our student mail services can significantly reduce wait times and make the process less disruptive to your students' busy college lives. We can set up your system to alert students when you receive their mail — so they don't have to wait at the counter while mailroom employees search to see if any mail has arrived. Once alerted, students can stop by the mail center at their convenience, notifying mailroom employees to retrieve their packages with a quick swipe of their student IDs — experiencing fewer lines and minimal hassle.

With our campus mail solutions, you can also provide faculty and staff with direct access to digital mailboxes on their smart devices, and help to increase mail center employee productivity by automating mailroom tasks — giving staff more time to focus on assisting students.
