Maintenance Management

Give every repair one owner, one status, and one place to follow it.

Create and assign work orders, switch between list and Kanban views, attach photos or videos, schedule preventative maintenance, and keep projects and equipment records alongside daily repairs.

What this is.

Maintenance Management is the daily work-order hub beside your PMS. Reservations and room inventory stay in the PMS; repair follow-through lives here. Staff record the issue, choose a priority and room or location, assign the work, and follow it in list or Kanban view. Photos and videos can document the report and the completed repair, while status, completion time, and the completing staff member stay with the work order. The same maintenance area supports recurring preventative-maintenance schedules, checklists, equipment records, and projects with status, budgets, room assignments, and completion tracking.

Maintenance management, in motion.

Three views of the same maintenance workflow: the work-order list, a single repair moving through its statuses, and the Kanban board across Pending, In Progress, Completed, and Backburner.

What it solves.

A leak in 218 is written in a desk log, mentioned over the radio, and left without a clear owner. Housekeeping keeps checking the room while Maintenance works from a different list.

One work order shows the issue, owner, status, and supporting media from report through completion.

One work queue

for pending, in-progress, completed, and back-burner repairs

In the flow.

A practical path from report to review, using the same work order throughout.

  1. 01
    Record the issue, room or location, priority, and optional media
  2. 02
    Assign the work or leave it unassigned for the team to pick up
  3. 03
    Follow the same job in list or Kanban view
  4. 04
    Add optional completion notes, photos, or videos

Buyer questions

What operators ask.

Does Maintenance Management replace our PMS?

No. Your PMS remains the system of record for reservations, rates, folios, and core room inventory. Hotel Central runs the repair workflow beside it: work orders, assignments, status, preventative schedules, projects, and maintenance history.

Can the maintenance team use both list and Kanban views?

Yes. Both views use the same work orders. The Kanban board organizes them as Pending, In Progress, Completed, or Backburner, and staff can move a work order between statuses as the repair progresses.

Are completion photos or videos required?

No. Completion notes, photos, and videos are optional. Teams can add them when they help document the repair, while Hotel Central records the completion time and completing staff member.

How does preventative maintenance work?

Teams can create recurring schedules with checklists. Due schedule instances generate work orders, and completing the linked work order updates the preventative-maintenance record and history.

How is Maintenance Management priced?

Work Orders and Preventative Maintenance are included in every Hotel Central plan. The standalone Maintenance Bundle is $99 per month or $990 per year with no setup fee and also includes Checklists, Equipment Registry, Boiler Readings, and Pool & Spa Log.
