Doxentrics for Caliber Compliance and Violations Implementation

Problem:  

  • Manual procedures were time-consuming and inconsistent
  • The drama between staff due to process confusion and miscommunication
  • Duplication of efforts between Community Manager and Admin staff
  • Printing and mailing all these letters were not value-added work
  • The receptionist had no visibility, so could not discuss violations with the owners
  • All owner violation discussions had to go thru the Community Managers
  • Inspections had not been done often enough, according to the HOA agreements
  • No Leadership oversight of the process

Solution:  Compliance in Caliber, Caliber Anywhere, and integrated third party printing

  • Standardized the end-to-end process across the entire company (15 people)
  • Managers add and advance violations in the field on their cell phones
  • Bulk duplication of often occurring violations in the office-based on worksheets
  • Programmed letter templates automatically display CCRs and Violation details from the system
  • Third-party letter printing integration to Letter Stream for ALL violation letters
  • Batch processing of letters instead of mailing them one at a time
  • Custom process documentation in company Knowledge Base for future reference
  • Interactive training for all staff members involved in the process

Achievements:

  • Ninety percent reduction in Administrative Assistant time spent sending violation letters
  • All company staff has visibility to all violation details and can now speak to owners
  • Leaders can see every Community Manager’s inspection schedule and violations
  • All violation letters have needed legal language per state statutes
  • System generated Violation reports presented during Board Meetings
