What is hybrid mail?

Hybrid mail is often defined in various ways, however in its most simplistic view it is centralised onsite or offsite mail production allowing a mix of physical (printed/posted) mail or e-delivery i.e. email, sms etc.

How does hybrid mail work?

The latest software solutions make Hybrid Mail very attractive as processing documents from your desktop follows the same steps as file, print, but with the added option of allow you to choose the class you want to send that mail item, rather than printing to a local printing and manually fulfilling all at a higher cost.

System generated documents can be captured and processed automatically, so no manual intervention is required at all. If e-delivery is preferred on all or select items this can also be automatically processed inline with those for physical print, fulfilment and dispatch.

Is hybrid mail secure?

In short yes, very secure. Hybrid mail if processed using any of our recommended solution utilises full audit tracking and barcode intelligence.

As a user you can now benefit from full tracking from your desktop, allowing you to check the status of each item to sent and through various stages i.e. printed, fulfilled and dispatched with estimated Royal Mail delivery times.

All documents are processed with barcode integrity to ensure recipients only get what is intended for them and you get to track every item through the process. This is the same technology the banks and NHS use to ensure GDPR compliance of personally identifiable information.
