Civica Cx Housing applies a logical work flow approach to the end-to-end repairs request management process. Upon receiving a repair request, the chronological progression stages are summarised as follows:
- Search for the contact raising the repair request.
- Log full details of the repair request, as reported by the contact, linking through to the asset record.
- Create an inspection booking (with or without an appointment), as required
1.
- Track the inspection and review the inspection outcome, as required.
- Generate a work order, allocating the relevant job tasks to the repair, as defined by the Schedule Of Rates (SOR).
- Select an accredited contractor to carry out the work order.
- Agree an appointment schedule with all stakeholders, as required
1.
- Despatch the work order to the contractor.
- Track the status of the repair and manage Work In Progress (WIP) and final inspections.
- Process the contractor invoice.
- Conduct a customer satisfaction survey.
Note
1 Certain assets such as community playgrounds will likely not require an inspection or repair appointment to be agreed with the contact.
