Quadient (Euronext Paris: QDT), a leader in business solutions for meaningful customer connections through digital and physical channels and a major global parcel locker operator, announces an integration partnership with StarRez, Inc., a leading global provider of residential experience and student housing software solutions. The collaboration between the two companies integrates Parcel Pending by Quadient smart lockers with the StarRez student resident and property management platform, which supports and enhances the experience of residential communities. The collaboration kicks-off in the U.S. with a focus on higher education student residences.
Quadient smart lockers have been installed at more than 200 higher education campuses across the U.S., helping colleges and universities streamline the delivery of ever-increasing volumes of packages, saving staff time and resources while improving the student experience. StarRez partners with more than 1,300 institutions and organizations globally to empower thriving communities, create modern resident experiences, and automate housing operations, from roommate matching to resident self-service, to front desk operations.
“The integration between Quadient and StarRez is a new and exciting partnership that now gives our community access to more efficient ways to manage their package operations for their residents,” said David Meale, president & chief customer officer, at StarRez. “Quadient and StarRez both share a vision to support campus-wide efficiencies through automation, security and scalability, and to ultimately exceed student expectations. StarRez and Quadient’s Parcel Pending smart lockers will help teams deliver an improved and valuable experience for staff and residents.”
Quadient’s Parcel Pending Campus Hub system goes beyond mail services, offering contact-free exchange points on campus for items such as event materials, bookstore merchandise, class and IT equipment, on-campus dining and moving materials. The system provides a full chain of custody for packages and other goods distributed on campus through the lockers, ensuring accountability and transparency.
“With StarRez and Quadient working together, students have access to more services and campus staff benefits from a more streamlined and cohesive experience for resident management,” said Austin Maddox, North America executive vice president, Parcel Locker Solutions, Quadient. “We look forward to exploring new innovations between Quadient and StarRez.”
