Did you know that on average 20% of paper-based maintenance requests are misplaced, and 25% of residents have lingering work orders? Property management firms juggle a variety of work orders, from tenant repair requests to routine preventive maintenance tasks to emergency repairs. However, keeping tabs on scheduled and on-demand maintenance tasks can overwhelm a manual or paper-based work order scheduling system.
