Commercial – Large Canadian Bank
Background
A large Canadian bank sought to fundamentally change the manner in which they received their courier shipments. Additionally, they wanted to give employees a way to receive their online orders at their place of work.
Over 30% of deliveries to the bank were missed on the first attempt while others were lost. Further, the bank is concerned about the increasing the foot traffic in their building along with frequent disturbances to their staff by courier drivers attempting to make their deliveries.
Needs Analysis
The bank was looking for a turn-key solution to remove the need for the courier to go through the building looking to deliver, in person, their shipments. Specifically the solution needed to be:
- Accessible 24/7
- Courier agnostic
- Easily expandable
- Monitored and secure
- Handle a wide range of parcel sizes
- Capable of processing expired parcels
The Solution
After a thorough review of their options and considering various other vendors, the large bank decided to deploy a ParcelPort Smart Locker to address their needs. Their lockers provided an automated and elegant solution to their problem:
- Employee registry automatically updated daily
- Parcels dropped off with a single barcode scan
- Employees are messaged their pick up code
- Pickups can be done in less than 20 seconds
