Whether you need some help setting up for an event or changing out a ballast in your light fixture, our College’s maintenance staff has a new and improved method for responding quickly and efficiently.
MaintenanceDirect - an Internet-based work order and maintenance management system - is now available for you to fill out maintenance work orders.
In order to get set up with this new system, go to www.myschoolbuilding.com on the Internet and enter our organization number (which you will need to get from Chuck Reece (ext. 4280) or Kathleen Breedlove (ext. 4260) in the Human Resources Office) in the space provided. After that, you can bookmark the page by selecting: “Favorites” and “Add to Favorites” in your browser. You can also save a shortcut on your computer desktop by clicking on “File/Send/Send shortcut to desktop.” You can then rename the shortcut on your desktop to something that you can remember.
Now you’re ready to submit a work request. The next time you need assistance from Maintenance, you can click on the shortcut you saved on your desktop or in your favorites folder. Then you can fill out the work request form - being very careful to enter your e-mail address correctly because it is your unique username in the system. After that, you can enter the organization password - which you will also need to get from Chuck or Kathleen. You can then click submit.
Anytime you want to check the status of previous requests, you can return to this page and click on the “my requests” tab.
