SAIS : Pioneering The School E-storefront

As the year draws to a close, the SAIS staff will once again be responsible for compiling 4 different yearbooks for each level – Early Years, Lower Elementary, Upper Elementary, Middle School and High School. This involves the annual planning of more than 200 pages of content design and text, which must again take into consideration the school’s 5,000 teaching and support staff as well as its 35,000 students.

This proved to be a gargantuan task for a small administrative team. Fortunately, p;log had the perfect solution to facilitate the management of their internal processes—SAIS’ very own custom e-store.

As its name suggests, the e-store enabled the remote sale of yearbooks to students, parents and teachers at their own time and convenience. Eliminating the need to manually take yearbook orders and collect payment freed up time for the administrative staff to perform more value-adding tasks, improving the school’s overall productivity.

Not only that, the e-store came with an online editor function that allowed users to personalise their own yearbooks. Parents and teachers could choose from a variety of pre-designed templates or choose to start their own from scratch. The editor also allowed multiple users to upload photos onto the platform and oversee the design progress, improving collaboration and team efficiency.

SAIS’ utilisation of p;log’s print and webstore services have greatly improved their operations, freeing up more time for staff to concentrate on essential tasks while at the same time ensuring that students receive their personalised yearbook on time.
