  • SPRING 1979 Ro L ME 16, NUMBER 1 MVB Improves Efficiency with Word Processor
    ISSN 0382·2141 PUBLI ED BY TH E BRI ISH COLUMBIA MINI TRY OF TRAN PO TATION, C MMUNICATION AND HIGHWAYS SPRING 1979 rO L ME 16, NUMBER 1 MVB Improves Efficiency With Word Processor Always looking for ways to improve its operation, the Mo tor­ vehicle Branch has come up with a time and money-saving word processing machine. Clerks in the driver safety and improvement section were typing 3,500 letters a week and completing 600 to 700 computer cards a day, with each card requiring the driver's licence num­ ber, full name, name code, effective date, and file number of each letter. June Byers, Administrative Officer in charge of the section, believed what was needed was a machine that could take names and addresses and merge them with a basic letter which had already been keyed onto the program disk. June told factory representatives the machine had to be compatible with the computer system where you could type in a master letter, have merging capabilities, and also be able to store and recall. That was two years ago, and today, because of Ju ne's resource­ ful thinking, the Motor-vehicle Branch has its word processing machine. Suspension data is keyed into a terminal, stored on a disk, and the office assistants are now producing twice the work they did before. Clerks type letters of suspension, letters of reinstatement, pro­ bation letters and assessment letters. First the name and driver's licence number is typed on the letter, then to avoid a computer­ oriented letter, a person's file is reviewed and any variable factor is noted on the letter so as not to lose that personal touch a dic­ Debbie Norman prints the leiters while Supervisor June Byers tated letter might give.
