The Maintenance Technician's Daily Nightmare
Paperwork, office trips, and outdated systems waste 35% of every technician's day
Buried in Paperwork
You spend 8 hours per week on paperwork: handwriting work order notes, filling completion forms, tracking time manually. You're in the mechanical room but the work order details are at your desk. By Friday you have 17 forms to fill out from memory. You became a technician to fix things, not to be a secretary.
Endless Office Trips
Start of day: walk to office, pick up work orders. Finish job: walk back, submit paperwork. Need asset info: walk to office again. 6-8 trips daily between job sites and office. You complete 4 work orders per day—should be 8—but half your time is spent walking and waiting.
Zero Information Access
Work order says 'fix chiller.' Which chiller? What's the history? Where's the manual? You walk back to office to look up details. Equipment manual is in a filing cabinet—locked. Call supervisor (busy), text colleague (no response). You need information but it's locked away or doesn't exist.
