All You Want Is a Unified Solution

It’s Christmas Eve.

So, we’re thinking about 2021.

Most importantly, we’re thinking about what we’d like to see you achieve.

You’re a great leader and always working hard to run your property the best you can.

But you always feel like you hit too many bottlenecks.

You have a lot of moving parts to keep your eyes on daily.

This responsibility makes it challenging to ensure nothing slips through the cracks.

Your security team uses software for their guard tours.

Public safety uses another system.

(You can’t recall the name.)

Your maintenance team requires your team to write up a work order and then forward it to them.

Then, they enter the work order into their CMMS.

Nothing in your operation is unified.

Agree?

We counted three different systems right there.

Each different system sends you a separate report, formatted differently, and each has its faults that you must overcome each week to assess the information.

Is this efficient?

It’s not.

You’re using many tools to run your property.

That’s not Proactive Operations.

This strategy is dangerous because it leads to significant inefficiencies that affect your customers, bottom line, and your job.

But the good news is you can change the course in 2021.

You can control the effectiveness of your operation.

You don’t need multiple tools.

You need a unified solution.

That’s all you want.

Unify Your Software Solutions

The not-so-secret recipe for implementing Proactive Operations throughout your property is your ability to be proactive.

Obvious?

Then, why are so many operations still struggling to achieve this?

The answer: you’re using too many different software tools to run your property’s operations.

How proactive can a team be when your technology is causing you to overextend yourself and ultimately break down from lack of awareness, communication, documentation, and analysis?

You can’t be very proactive at all, can you?

Use of legacy software limits you
Managing too many tools prevent seamlessness
Discrepancies with information diminish data integrity
Unaligned teams lead to substantial communication issues
Poor communication puts everyone on a different wavelength

These are easy to identify problems, but it’s the ones you don’t even know exist that cripple your organization.

Do you know how to fix this?

Move to unified technology.

It will allow you to employ Proactive Operations across all departments.

That way, you don’t miss a beat.

Deploy unified technology.
Create a unified organization.
Achieve Proactive Operations.

Two Must-Know Benefits of Using Unified Software

Now, you’re probably itching to know what ‘unified’ entails.

There are two primary attributes of a unified solution that will change the way your operation functions.

The ability for related modules to talk to one another
Ability to link records to other associated records

Let us explain.

Related modules can talk to one another

You gain exceptional skills when you remove the concept of individual tools from your strategy.

You produce a unique operation whereby all functional departments work together to achieve your desired outcome: running a proactive operation.

Consider this; you have three tools:

Text Communication
Incident Management System
CMMS

Independently, they work fine.

Each system is web-based and offers quite a bit of functionality and flexibility for departmental teams.

But they are from different vendors, and each of your departments utilizes the systems separately.

A disjointed operation creates inefficiencies you can’t afford.

Then, let’s bring them together as one solution.

A top-notch solution will give you the ability to coordinate between related modules.

Here’s what we mean:

Let’s say several customers witness a fight on your property.

During the dispute, each witness sends a text message to your Text Communication module.

The first text message received reports the fight.

Your staff sends the incident from this module to your Incident Management System (IMS) – within seconds.

Once the incident is passed to the IMS, you receive another incident report from your frontline staff via their Incident Management Mobile App.

This report notes that several customers have sustained injuries during the fight.

From the solution queue, you must notify all need-to-know teams:

Administration
Police
Housekeeping (Possibility of blood at the scene)

Staff arrives on-scene, and after the incident calms down, a Supervisor confirms there is broken furniture that Engineering needs to attend to at some point.

After filling out the necessary details in your IMS, your staff sends the details over to the CMMS by creating a work order from the solution.

Yes, right then and there, in the present time, this information can be passed off to maintenance in a format that is actionable and trackable.

The maintenance team might not be able to handle this fix immediately.

But they must be aware so that they can take care of it following your event.

How is this for a unified operation?!

This is what you need.

There’s more, though.

Associate records can be linked

Do you recall the report made by your frontline staff regarding injuries from the fight?

Well, that incident was initially entered in the IMS as a separate incident.

In these solutions, you can link this medical incident to the major incident for the fight.

This ability is simple yet profound.

It ensures that nothing ever slips through the cracks.
It allows your team to connect the dots on the fly.
It helps you review the incident later without worrying about whether you’re missing the whole story.

It doesn’t end here either.

Now, a wheelchair request is sent into your Request Tracking Software from a supervisor.

A different module in your solution.

The wheelchair request was for a bystander that was injured from the fight.

The aftermath is not too bad, but they did suffer a sprained ankle.

Showing them how your world-class organization delivers the first-class service they expect, you’re escorting them to their car in a wheelchair that was promptly provided to them.

Go ahead and connect this request to the incident record as well.

Get the full picture and have complete control of your operation.

Use one solution that lets you achieve every level of efficiency you need.
