Physical Plant Services (PPS) wants to hear from staff, faculty and students about the services it provides to the university community.

“The first client satisfaction survey, which we conducted this time last year, was a great success. We received a lot of constructive feedback from almost a thousand people, and we’d like to hear from even many more staff, faculty and students this year,” says John Witjes, Associate Vice-Principal (Facilities). “We welcome all feedback and ideas in order to help us make positive changes to the campus and PPS priorities.”

The survey asks for feedback on the following areas:

  • General conditions of campus
  • Fixit
  • Small repairs and maintenance
  • Small projects
  • Major projects
  • Security
  • Billing and invoicing

To improve customer service, PPS has partnered with Residences to update the software it uses to manage customer work requests. The new system, slated to launch in August 2016, will allow clients to enter work requests for small repairs and maintenance and track their progress online.
