Grade Report Processing

 

The Problem

A local high school needed a better method of processing the more than 2,700 grade reports they print and distribute to their students each quarter.  Their current method is mostly manual with large intervals of time where the grade reports are not processed and visible to anyone visiting the office.  Confidentiality is of concern to the school administration.   

The school considered a pressure seal system that included a top-feeding folder/sealer with an input hopper of only 100 documents and a processing speed of 5,200 documents.  Due to the low input hopper capacity, the folder/sealer would have to be stopped, loaded & restarted every minute.  To do their quarterly grade reports, the operator would have to stop, load & restart the unit 27 times before the run is complete. 

School administration determined this system would do little to improve processing time or confidentiality because of the frequent stopping, loading & restarting of a top-feeding system.

 

The Solution

The school was presented with the PSMailers LMQII to give them what they were looking for to improve the grade reporting process.  All PSMailers utilize a bottom-feed system that can be continually loaded with documents while the unit is running - no stopping the unit to add documents!  Because there is no need to stop the unit during the process, grade reports are folded/sealed and ready for distribution in about 30 minutes – greatly improving processing times and student confidentiality.  All for considerably less than the top-feeding system without sacrificing any features!

 

A unique bottom feeding system – standard on all PSMailers - increases productivity by eliminating frequent reloading of documents.
