Maintenance supervisor is hindered by a lack of budget, micromanagement, and unrealistic expectations from property management, preventing effective job execution.

Workarounds Described

• Gets permission to use each vendor individually
• Manager asks supervisor 3 days in a row how to change move-in dates in OneSite
• Daily meetings about vacancies
• 17 inspections scheduled manually without considering existing work orders
• Work orders balloon from 13 to 80+ due to poor scheduling

Implied Software Gaps

• Automated vendor approval system with pre-approved list to eliminate manual permission requests
• Integrated training and support within PMS to reduce manager reliance on supervisor for basic tasks
• Scheduling engine that prevents overbooking based on existing work orders and budget
