| CASE STUDY |
| Jackson Lloyd innovates in property services using Servitor |
 |
"We’ve got much better visibility of operations. Using the Business Objects reporting we can run any report, look at success rates and examine why particular jobs are going on hold. We now have fully integrated stores and stock management, get cost commitments before organising a repair job and pre-review our financial planning. Our invoicing is faster and exactly tied to costs.”

| PRODUCT NEWS |
| SERVITOR – New Performance Management module |
 |
With the introduction of “single status” pay agreements we have seen a move away from the traditional bonus incentive schemes. This has resulted in the traditional operative performance details available from systems being diluted and posed difficulties in gaining access to detailed performance information.
We have worked closely with a number of customers to address these issues and are pleased to announce the release of the Servitor Performance Management Module.
For more information, please contact your Servitor account manager. | |

Kevin Holley Customer Support Director |
What does your role involve? Responsible for the provision of Product and Technical support within Civica’s Housing and Asset Management team.
What are the best aspects of your job? The people. I work with a fantastic team and it’s a real pleasure problem solving with them day to day. The role is extremely varied and challenging, I can never tell what a day will bring but I know whatever comes our way I have a team who can respond and solve the issue.
What is your favourite holiday? I have recently come back from China and was amazed at the sights I saw, but if repeat visits are any measure then Disneyworld will always be a favourite! |
