Easy to manage

Repair-IT-now has been designed for ease of administration. Often software is designed for the daily user, and so has Repair-IT-now, but we have gone a lot further. We appreciate that administration is done less frequently and so ease of use in this area is key to you, and your successors, maintaining a high performance.

Choice of User methods of operation - by your user!

Repair-IT-now has two modes of operation for the identification of problems selectable by individual users:-
1. Q & A scripts - a preset sequence of questions is presented to the operator that takes them down a diagnosis sequence leading to the problem identification.
2. Graphical - the operator is presented initially with a generalised floor plan of a dwelling with the various rooms and basic equipment that may require maintenance. The operator clicks on the one indicated by the caller, for example the kitchen sink. Then a more detailed diagram of the sink is sown with its various parts, the taps, water feed, drain etc. Finally the actual item requiring repair is identified - e.g. dripping tap.
At the end of the diagnosis the system delivers an identified remedy to the repairs management system. This is then used to order the repair work by your Housing Management system. It can also present the operator with warnings for the repair agent and/ or advice for the caller about temporary measures that can be taken.

Tailored to suit your operation

The system is aimed at identifying the top two to three hundred repairs jobs that account for over 90% of all your calls. These are then programmed in so that they can all be correctly identified - first time every time.
In the event that your circumstances change or that one diagnosis has been input to the system incorrectly, then it will be consistently wrong and can easily be identified and fixed by you. No expensive software call out charges either!
