Your Estate Services

The Estates Team at Platform implemented changes to the Grounds Maintenance and Communal Cleaning services. These changes were applied differently across service areas, resulting in varied customer experiences.

To assess the impact of these changes, the team wanted to gather customer views on the quality of service they received.
