Mailbox system

Challenge:

A mailbox system had to be developed with an access-protected space for the automated distribution of external post and confidential internal documents.

For safety concerns it was not allowed to use the IT infrastructure of the company.

Due to data protection requirements (postal privacy) the recipient had to remain anonymous as far as possible. His personal data was not allowed to be stored locally in the system.

Solution:

Lockers were used of the product range ecos depot.  Lockers were used of the product range ecos depot.  The system is self-sufficient and informes the user via GSM-modem about their post.

The post office of the company or other internal staff can distribute post or other documents to the compartments and then enter the cell phone number of the recipient. The recipient will receive a SMS from the PO Box system including an access PIN, the compartment number and a message about the deposited object.

With a valid access card and the received PIN, the receiver can pick up his mail or documents at the system.
