- Work order callbacks are costly and impact resident satisfaction.
Invest in Your Techs, or Someone Else Will
Limited support and maintenance training resources make it difficult for techs to grow their skills. Providing your maintenance team with essential tools for success can help employees feel valued and, ultimately, reduce turnover rates.
“The tools are a huge help. It shortens the learning curve...everything is in one place. So, that is a tremendous resource for efficiency in the field."
