Managing Project Management for Schools

With the school year winding down, the summer break is a prime time for major maintenance and repair projects. Fewer students and staff are around, which means there is less interruption to learning and other activities that typically take place during the traditional school year.

Because summer break means fewer people on campus, it’s a great time to take on major projects that would otherwise be difficult in the school year, such as room additions, interior painting, plumbing and electrical repairs, window, roof, and ceiling replacements, and even mold remediation. Scheduling these projects now will make sure you get them done before students return in the fall.

Taking your repair and maintenance projects seriously shows both parents and students you care about providing a beautiful, healthy, and safe environment for learning, which goes a long way in increasing student retention, too.

Must-do projects, however, can be costly and difficult to manage. That’s where Lessen comes in. Lessen Project Management is a standalone offering that allows you to fully outsource your school projects that your regular maintenance staff doesn’t have the manpower or expertise to handle. This end-to-end service gives you everything you need to get the work done right, on time, and at an affordable price.
