The Case for Predictive Maintenance in Smaller Portfolios
Most small commercial property teams run lean. There’s no room for overstaffing or redundant systems. That makes every maintenance event critical. Predictive maintenance turns your data into foresight, allowing you to fix things before they fail.
Unlike traditional preventative maintenance (which relies on fixed schedules), predictive systems use live data and historical trends to identify signs of pending failure—whether it’s a pattern of increased HVAC service calls or repeated water pressure drops.
With Terminus, you can track work order frequency by asset or system and get notified when patterns emerge. This lets you prioritize high-risk equipment, schedule service at convenient times, and avoid emergency repairs that disrupt tenants and cost more.
Predictive maintenance helps you preserve cash flow, avoid reputation damage, and protect long-term asset value—all with no additional headcount.
