Introducing the Packet Parcel Sorting System: Enhancing Efficiency and Reducing Costs for Staci Americas' Clients

At Staci Americas, innovation is at the heart of what we do, driving us to deliver exceptional service and tangible value to our clients. To further this commitment, we’re proud to announce that we’ve partnered with ID Parcel & Mail Solutions to roll out a new semi-automated Packet Parcel Sorting System (PPSS) at our Lawrenceville, GA, distribution center. This state-of-the-art system is designed not just to improve operational accuracy but also to create meaningful cost savings that directly benefit our customers.

Addressing a Common Challenge

Unexpected shipping surcharges can significantly impact the bottom line for businesses. To tackle this issue, Staci Americas identified the need for a more precise and efficient way to capture package dimensions, weights, and tracking numbers.

The goal: to validate shipping data, identify and dispute incorrect surcharges and ensure transparency in costs passed along to clients. The PPSS was the perfect solution to address these needs.

How the Packet Parcel Sorting System Works

The PPSS processes mixed streams of small packets and medium parcels with a focus on accuracy and efficiency. Here’s how it works:

• Data Validation: If package weights and dimensions match the provided data, they are processed seamlessly. For discrepancies, Staci Americas verifies and corrects the data before sending it to the carrier, reducing errors and ensuring accurate billing.
• Streamlined Design: The system features a one-person manual induction feeding area with a barcode scanner, designed for easy operation. With a processing speed of up to 1,200 pieces per hour, it’s optimized to handle our current volume requirements efficiently.
• Modular Upgradability: Built with scalability in mind, the PPSS can support future enhancements to increase throughput up to 3,000 packages per hour, allowing us to stay ahead of our clients’ growing needs.

Passing Cost Savings to Our Clients

By reducing surcharge disputes and ensuring precise shipping data, Staci Americas can better control shipping costs—a benefit we’re proud to pass directly to our clients. The implementation of the PPSS ensures:

• Transparent Billing: Accurate data means fewer unexpected fees, providing clarity and predictability in shipping costs.
• Operational Efficiency: Enhanced processes translate into faster, more reliable deliveries, improving overall customer satisfaction.
• Scalable Solutions: The modular design of the PPSS allows us to grow alongside our clients, offering scalable benefits without compromising quality.

Delivering Results 🚚

The results are clear: the PPSS has delivered on its promise of accuracy and efficiency. Staci Americas’ clients can trust that shipping costs are being managed with precision, and they can benefit from improved cost control and a streamlined logistics experience.

The new system from ID Parcel & Mail Solutions is implemented alongside our innovative warehouse technology—including advanced goods-to-person robotics, pick-to-light technology and autonomous drones for cycle counting—to help us achieve 99.9% order fulfillment accuracy and 99.8% on-time delivery and shipping accuracy for our customers.

Looking Ahead 🎯

Staci Americas is committed to continually investing in innovative technologies that enhance our operations and deliver measurable value to our clients. The success of the PPSS is just one example of how we prioritize solutions that make a difference. As we explore future enhancements to this system, we remain focused on providing best-in-class service and passing along the savings to the businesses we serve.
