What is Property Maintenance?

1. 1. Collaboration with the team. We as Project Manager understand that collaboration between team members is very important. However, it shouldn’t be applicable to team members only, but also between project management and property maintenance teams also and we do it in every phase of the project.

We are proactive with our Property Maintenance, by getting every team member involved in the planning part of the project, up to task estimation and scheduling. This allows us to develop a more practical plan, as well as make the team more likely to report problems that could have, otherwise been unnoticed.

Once we are at the execution phase of the project, we maintain regular contact between the teams, without having to distract them from their work. For instance, a quick message is less disruptive than a face-to-face meeting or chat.

1. 1. Flexibility – It seldom happens that a project moves from the initial stage to its ending, without having to go through any changes during the process. If we need to deviate from the original timeline or include new tasks to the plan, we pivot with our Property Maintenance team. For us Project Managers, maintenance is not just about keeping all activities in line with the plan. It is also about us finding a method, to alter the course, while the project is ongoing.

When things happen unexpectedly, such as tasks running past their target dates or budget allocations exceed, this is where we act. As Project Managers, we assess how it affects the project and make revisions to the plan that will make us able to get the result that we want in the end.

1. Quality of work. When delivering a million-dollar project, we make sure that it will not result in a re-work, higher cost, delays, problems, frustration, and loss of customer satisfaction. We maintain consistent project quality and we practice courage, commitment and focus.
