When you spoon-feed plans to a property or operations manager, they invariably love them. But time and time again, they simply let them die. It's human nature; when people put some effort into something, they are much more likely to stay involved in making sure that it stays current. Conversely, hand them something complete that needs none of their input and once it becomes outdated, they rarely do anything to resuscitate it.
Apathy is the leading cause of operations plans becoming outdated. And eventually they become so outdated as to be almost useless.
Increases likelihood of capturing info already known.
Catches information that is invisible to on-site survey
Improves familiarity with plans and icons, right from the start.
Increases likelihood of regular updates by over 400%.
Keeping your people involved in the plans right from the start creates a higher degree of buy-in as they become co-authors of the documents they later use. Our virtual survey process does exactly that without adding to the burden of their existing workload. This leads to a dramatically higher degree of usage and increased updates that maintain the integrity of the information on the plan.
Property manager or key vendor involvement helps ensure that aspects of the property that are invisible from satellite or street view, or not on other source documents, are successfully captured. This translates into highly comprehensive plans at a fraction of the cost of an on-site survey.
And remember ... no site visit means no interruption to tenants and no special access that needs to be coordinated.
