PME Operating Clarity Check

Where is operating work breaking down?

Use five practical questions to look at the work moving between property management, maintenance, accounting, leasing, and leadership.

Start the check Browse PME tools

Five questions. No rent rolls, resident records, financial statements, or private system exports.

What you will inspect

  1. Owner priorities and the plan behind the work.
  2. Handoffs, accountable roles, and backups.
  3. Proof that a report or closeout is complete.
  4. Communication, escalation, and decision rights.
  5. Whether the work still runs when a senior leader is away.

Look at one operating rhythm

Score what the team can show today. A low score points to a working question, not a judgment about a person or company.

Choose one answer for each area.
Can the team state the owner objective, current decisions, risks, and definition of success?
Does recurring work have a first owner, backup, trigger, and next decision?
Can the team show what complete means for a work order closeout or owner report?
Do owners and managers know the cadence, threshold, decision rights, and response path?
Can the team run the workflow when the founder, president, or COO is unavailable?

Choose a score for each area before viewing the result.
