Education

The business of education is more competitive than it has ever been.

Between 1994 and 2004, enrollment in degree-granting institutions increased at a rate of 21 percent. Although the number of students entering institutions of higher learning has been increasing, competition for top performing students in terms of both intellectual and athletic achievement has never been greater. And while enrollment has been increasing, if you represented a public institution, you typically found your state appropriation decrease; and if you were a private institution, you experienced higher costs for institutional aid and faculty compensation, and lower levels of revenue from non tuition sources. Finally, even in the college and university environment there are regulatory issues that cannot be ignored, such as the Private Express Statute, and copyright infringement laws.

This leaves any college or university in a quandary; provide a high level of service to potential and current students, while balancing limited available funds. Remarkably, perhaps, your management of your document related processes can significantly assist you in both of these areas.

Atlantic Partners is your trusted advisor.

In developing a quality “experience” for your students, the way you manage their incoming and out-going mail, and the ease with which they are able to output the documents they need to use for their daily coursework, makes a significant impact on their daily life. The mailstream in and out of a university is the lifeblood for attracting new students, and between a current student and people who are paying their tuition…

We will assess each area within your current document related processes, and help you build a better environment for your students and faculty. Typical areas we assess are:

• Student mail and package processes
• Records and information management
• Contract Postal Unit management
• Carrier cost management
• Centralized and distributed print operations
