Maintenance Requests
Hey Bossman,
Can you have a look at Unit 113?
And it disappears into
someone’s e-mail …
Now, Who Wants What
O We need to figure out who wants what
O We need to figure out what to provide
O We need to figure out how they get to it
Someone identifies “what”
they are
To indicate their “role” in the
situation
These different perspectives
are called “personas”
They help us determine the
varying “interests” users

Or
“Tenant”
Or just
“Owner”
Resident Homeowner
Property ManagerBoard Member
Roger
The Resident
Naming our “personas” often
helps to keep them distinct
as we think through the
problem
Harriett
The Homeowner
Barbara
The Board
Member
Peter
The Property Manager
Resident Homeowner
Property ManagerBoard Member
Roger wants
his problem
fixed
He also wants to
know when
Be nice to know
when it’s done

Harriett wants to
keep her resident
happy
Which means
knowing there’s a

And a simple means
to track it

Barbara wants to
ensure that things
are getting done
Which means looking
things over weekly
Maybe even setting
work priorities
Tracking how long
things have been
waiting
Roger
Barbara
Harriett

Peter wants to get it
all done
He also wants an
easy way to track
things
So he can update
things on the move
And report progress
without repeating himself
