Background

Simco Management, a seasoned property management company that manages over 21,000 doors, has been a prominent figure in the property management industry. With a commitment to professional, hands-on services, Simco has continually sought innovative solutions to enhance their operational efficiency and client satisfaction.

Solution

Simco Management integrated Condo Control, a comprehensive property management software, into their operations. This platform was selected for its ability to streamline communication, track projects, and manage service requests efficiently.

Implementation

Condo Control was adopted across various departments within Simco, each utilizing the software's features to optimize their specific workflows:

Management

The software provided a centralized system for tracking project progress and addressing board concerns, enhancing accountability and transparency.

Property Managers

Initially overwhelmed by multiple communication channels, managers were trained to centralize their responses within Condo Control, reducing duplication and improving response times.

Administrative Staff

The automation of routine tasks, such as issuing infraction and arrears letters, significantly reduced the time required for these activities.

Simco Management Results Through Condo Control

Despite a 50% increase in work orders, the administrative department maintained the same staffing levels, handling up to 2,300 work orders monthly, up from 1,500.
