    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    Paperwork, office trips, and outdated systems waste 35% of every technician's day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, submitting expense reports. You're in the mechanical room but the work order details are at your desk. You complete repairs but forget to document them. 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 (paper printouts). Finish job: walk back to office, submit paperwork. Need asset information: walk to office, look up details. 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. You're a maintenance technician, not a mail carrier.

    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 asset details. Equipment manual is in a filing cabinet—locked—nobody has the key. Call supervisor (busy), text colleague (no response), try yourself (takes 3× longer). You need information to do your job, but all the information is somewhere else, locked away, or doesn't exist.
