Managing your Owners’ Committee responsibilities
When BuildingLink is set up for residents, Owners’ Committee members get additional access to a secure home page as part of their profile. This home page is only for committee members and a launch pad for other committee member tools. From the Owners’ Committee home page you’ll find:
- Active surveys for member’s of the owners’ committee about issues relevant to their role
- A library of helpful documents to support owners’ committee responsibilities
- Posts and comments from other members about owners’ committee issues
- Communication tools for contacting your building manager and other committee members by email
- A list of committee members in your building with their contact details
All of these features are secure and only accessible to owners’ committee members. This means you’ll be able to join in committee discussions online, knowing that what’s discussed is private and secure for the group.
Maintenance requests and overseeing day-to-day management
Overseeing the day-to-day management of your building is one of the most difficult Owners’ Committee responsibilities. But keeping up with repair requests, regular maintenance and defect management doesn’t need to be time-consuming. With BuildingLink this part of owners’ committee responsibilities is quick and easy.
With just a few clicks, committee members can access a list of all repair requests for their building. The online portal can be accessed from anywhere and the progress on each item is easy to track from request to completion. It makes keeping building managers accountable a cinch!
Discussing important committee matters
The secure discussion board for committee members makes debates and collaborations on building policies and by-laws possible from anywhere. The system automatically records committee member’s notes and comments so they can be referred to at a later date when needed.
Knowing that the discussion is private and secure, only accessible by members, allows each participant to freely share their ideas and suggestions.
Make your vote count
Giving your opinion and collecting suggestions and ideas are all part and parcel of an Owners’ Committee’s responsibilities. Committee-only surveys make this aspect of committee member life simple. From the committee member home page, you can easily see surveys that are still waiting for your input. These can be sent with deadlines and expiry dates, or open indefinitely so all members can have their say.
The secure space BuildingLink provides for Owners Committees makes meeting the daily responsibilities of the role less onerous and way more enjoyable. You’ll be able to choose when and where you join discussions and have access to pop into the committee-only area whenever it suits your timetable.
