PCMI Integrates with BerkOne to Provide Automated Printing and Mailing within PCRS

This integration allows administrators to automatically send physical, trackable documentation to their customers directly from PCRS.

Park Ridge, Illinois – November 24, 2020 – PCMI has integrated with BerkOne, a leading provider within the content and process automation industry. This partnership comes in conjunction with PCMI’s announcement of its new Notification Center Module within its Policy Claim and Reporting Solutions™ (PCRS) platform. While this new module has the ability to send automated emails and text notifications, there is still a need for administrators to send physical mail due to compliance standards. This partnership fulfills that need – administrators can set event-based triggers for when a letter needs to be sent, and BerkOne’s facilities will automatically print, mail, and reconcile the materials once that trigger is activated.
