What if – Pharmaceutical Firm’s Digital Visitor Log

Pharmacist

In the quaint town of Modena, Italy, stood a prominent pharmaceutical company. With a constant influx of visitors – from suppliers and customers to partners and inspectors – having a clear and efficient visitor registration system was vital. Until then, they relied on a traditional guest book at the entrance, where visitors manually jotted down their name, company, and time of arrival. But the system was far from perfect. Illegible handwriting was a common issue, pages filled up quickly, and there was no quick way to review the day’s visitors.

Giovanni, the firm’s security chief, was particularly exasperated with this method. One day, while searching online for new label rolls for their label printer, he chanced upon Tagpresto. Intrigued, he delved deeper into its capabilities. It didn’t take long for him to realize that with Tagpresto and their existing label printer, he could devise a digital visitor registration solution.

His idea was straightforward yet ingenious. Instead of a guest book, the printer’s LCD screen, powered by the Tagpresto app, would greet visitors. They could easily fill in their details using the built-in keyboard. Upon submission, Tagpresto would instantly generate a unique QR code which would then be printed out. The visitor would receive this QR code in the form of a sticker to place on their clothing. Upon exiting, or when visiting various departments within the facility, they could simply scan their QR code, allowing for clear tracking of the visitor’s movements within the premises.

The system was an immediate hit. Not only was it more efficient, but it also heightened the company’s security, providing a clear digital overview of visitors. Plus, it was environmentally friendly, eliminating the need for paper logs. Giovanni earned accolades for his innovative solution, and soon other businesses in the area began adopting similar systems after hearing about its success.

Thus, a simple search for label rolls led to a groundbreaking solution that enhanced both efficiency and security for a leading pharmaceutical firm.
