## Schedule AHERA surveillance and summer PMs

Set each recurring PM on an asset or a tag, with its procedure and required photos. Central technicians close it on Android, and its signed report joins the school's record.

- ### The three-year reinspection

  Set a separate calendar PM for the accredited inspector's reinspection.![The AHERA six-month surveillance every 6 months with Corey Nash, and a separate three-year reinspection every 36 months with Paula Reyes, whose procedure requires a photograph of each area.](/_astro/fixahead-education-reinspection-pm-area-554.C2231WLy.webp)

## Give every school its own record

Place each campus, building, floor, and classroom in the location tree, with its assets and work history attached. When you pay by assets, all the district's technicians get logins.

- ### Cost for each location

  See labor at each technician's hourly rate plus parts, by location and period.![Maintenance Cost $468.80, Labour $313.30 and Parts $155.50, over each school's cost: Marlow Ridge High School $393.70, Birch Hollow Middle School $31.40, Westfield Elementary School $43.70.](/_astro/fixahead-education-school-cost-area-361.B9G8WIV4.webp)

## How a six-school district would run it

Say your district has 3,900 students in six schools and a maintenance and operations team of five: a director, an HVAC technician, an electrician, a plumber, and a general maintenance technician. Each school, its buildings, and its classrooms sit in the location tree, and the team works one district queue.

- **Reports from your district only.** List your email domain, and only people at it can report.
- **Each school's dashboard.** Narrow work order status to one school and see what's open there.
- **Critical parts in stock.** Flag the unit ventilator control valve as critical, and see when it runs low.
