📌 Problem Statement
Property managers handle dozens of maintenance issues daily across multiple buildings and teams. Most workflows today are scattered across calls, WhatsApp, spreadsheets, and emails.
Your task is to build a mobile-First mini property maintenance management system that streamlines this process. Create a simple but production-quality web app that allows:
Tenants to report issues
Managers to assign and track work
Technicians to resolve tasks efficiently
We’re testing clarity of thinking, system design, and execution quality.
👥 Roles
Your system must support:
Tenant
Property Manager
Technician
Each role should have different permissions.
⚙️ Core Features Required
✅ Authentication + role-based access
✅ Tenants submit maintenance requests • title • description • images (file upload)
✅ Managers: • view all tickets • assign technicians • change priority/status
✅ Technicians: • view assigned tasks • update progress
✅ Status flow: Open → Assigned → In Progress → Done
✅ Activity log per ticket (e.g., created, assigned, status changes)
✅ Basic notifications (email or in-app)
