71% |
88% |
Since the current Streetlight Maintenance Contractor does not have access
to DDOT's service request system, Transportation Services Administration
has implemented the following procedure to have a street or alley light
serviced: print all street and alley service requests each day, fax to the
maintenance contractor, who will input the requests into their database
system for service. In turn, they will run on the request within 2 days.
Streetlighting personnel must find the work order in the contractor's
system, input the repair time, date and change the problem code closing the
work order. This will take up to 8 calendar days to complete the work order.
This new procedure started in March 2005, causing our weekly percentage
to drop. |
