‘Drop-Off & Collect’ Service Transforms Colleges
Kay Tilbury
Many colleges have been turning to Smart Lockers to automate routine tasks, such as the management and maintenance of learning devices, however, one service in particular has become extremely beneficial for campuses - The seamless ‘drop-off & collect’ service, providing colleges with a more convenient and secure exchange process.
The term ‘drop-off & collect’ (sometimes called ‘pick-up & drop-off’) is the ability to automatically deposit or pick up items through a Smart Locker, without requiring direct staff intervention.
With hybrid and agile working now on the rise, it is often difficult for teachers and students to cross paths. A Smart Lockers ‘drop-off & collect’ service supports a seamless handover in these circumstances.
So, what assets have colleges been automating within the drop-off & collect service?
- Devices & peripherals
- Private documents & sensitive information
- Assignments & books
- Course materials and equipment
- Course uniforms and kits
- College-branded clothing
- Parcels
- New starter equipment
- Specialist equipment
- Broken equipment collection
- Long-term device deployment
- Out of hours deployment
By automating these routine procedures campuses have been able to save time and resources, provide a more efficient, flexible approach for staff and students, and enhance the security of assets.
We have supported the education sector for over twenty years during this time we have designed and manufactured a range of intelligent Smart Lockers. We continuously work closely with our customers by listening to their feedback and evolving our solutions to accommodate their requirements. Varies Case Studies can be found, here.
