Negotiating with Vendors, Prioritizing Work Orders & Adding Value to Move-Out

 

@aptchat I think it is fair for vendors to raise their prices also. They took a hit the same time we took hits. #AptChat

@30lines #Aptchat I think you start with FIFO, then go to triage (prioritize by seriousness). Mtce staff have to be nimble

@30lines #aptchat Work orders are priorited based on emergency status first and then as they come in.Move-ins get moved up when needed.

@30lines #aptchat I like the ideas from @jolenesopalski.. Best thing to do is return Sec. Dep. in a timely fashion and be fair with charges.
