Our trust-e solution is an essential tool and information provider for both schools and councils and offers a proven solution.  It provides schools with a speedy state of the art smooth running cashless system, which increases the throughput of pupils and therefore encourages the uptake of school meals.  It also allows schools to monitor meal turnover, free school meal uptake, stocks and wastage together with nutritional details.  It is also a great aid to the schools administration as they receive requests regarding school meals uptake, nutritional provision and requests from the School Foods Trust as to the performance in relation to the Governments ever increasing demands in this area.  The central reporting element of our solution will automatically, at the press of a button, provide the information that otherwise could take hours to produce.  It will give a series of reports including free school meals uptake by gender as well as numbers, nutritional information and any other reporting detail that is requested by the Government.

Trust-e operates in both secondary and primary schools with both systems having the same functionality benefits over other systems.  This cashless solution has already been selected through tenders by councils in Enfield, Croydon, Kirklees, Wrexham and Derbyshire for their schools.  Many other councils within England, Wales and Scotland have begun the process of implementing this new solution. We are also pleased to announce that our Trust-e Cashless Catering System has been a major contributor to the National e-Government award won by Croydon Council in early 2009.

Nationwide Retail Systems ltd is excited to announce their latest partnership with IOT plc.

IOT are the industry leader in providing Print and Copy control solutions into education and business environments.

Nationwide Retail Systems ltd has developed an integrated biometric solution with IOT plc for their Follow-You print solution. This allows our trust-e biometric cashless catering solution to also provide biometric access control to IOT’s Multi Function Printers - biometric printer access.

IOT’s Follow-You print solution can help relieve print bottlenecks. When a document is sent to print, it sits in a virtual queue where it is held until the sender authenticates themselves at a print device.
A secure release system, it allows users to collect print from any print device on the network, at a time that is convenient to them. Students can, for example, collect prints at break rather than milling around a printer in lesson time.

Communication matters. Smartly presented print communication has impact. Letters, course material, newsletters and notices look professional and are more likely to be read. IOT Plc’s digital multi functional printers treat each and every document as an original; delivering laser sharp quality, print after print and copy after copy. With the ability to feed special papers, and staple, punch and fold documents, your communication and learning material will be of the highest quality.
