Client's challenge

  • Outdated, manual mail handling processes causing mismanagement and operational inefficiencies.
  • Difficulty tracking and processing hundreds of incoming mail items daily.
  • Cumbersome renter onboarding and verification processes due to compliance requirements (USPS Form 1583, notarization, ID uploads).
  • Lack of centralized visibility for operators to monitor mail actions (open & scan, forward, shred, deposit, pickup).
  • Absence of real-time reporting tools to measure performance and maintain compliance.
  • No digital bridge between renters, operators, and business admins — resulting in communication gaps and missed actions.

Our solution

  • Introduced a digital renter onboarding flow with automated document verification, USPS Form 1583 capture, and online notarization support for compliance.
  • Implemented dedicated mail action modules to simplify how operators process each mail item, ensuring consistency and transparency.
  • Built an integrated billing engine for subscription management, overage tracking, and payment automation.
  • Developed renter and add-on user management modules with complete mail and document history.
  • Added reporting dashboards and data export tools to track mailroom KPIs and streamline audits.
  • Delivered a secure, branded platform supporting multiple operators and custom configurations for scalability across locations.
