"The MCFT customer portal is really easy to log repair works for any site on our campus. It can be broken down via site, then areas within and supervisors can be given specific access for only their spaces which makes it so much simpler for a large area like ours. It's also a useful tool to see what stage we're on for all jobs whilst keeping track on spend for each asset."
