Why Managing Tasks Professionally Is Critical for Service Providers
Delivering quality residential services goes beyond technical skills — it requires strong task management to ensure work is completed on time, within scope, and to client expectations. Without a system to track tasks, providers face costly mistakes, rework, and dissatisfied customers.
According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), 11.4% of investment in projects is wasted due to poor project performance, often caused by missing or poorly tracked tasks.
Additionally, a study by Planview reveals that 43% of workers cite "poor communication" and "lack of clear priorities" as the main reasons for project failure.
