About The Customer
Landmark Apartment Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries is a multifamily real estate company that is a publicly registered, non-traded real estate investment trust (REIT) specializing in ownership, acquisition, management, and disposition of multifamily apartment communities in geographically diverse, high-growth markets. Currently, Landmark Apartment Trust owns and operates over 30,000 apartment units across the United States in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Landmark recently rolled out 100% of their portfolio on Property Solutions’ Leasing Center call services.
The Challenge
With more and more ways for prospects to interact with apartment communities, the demands on leasing agents are more taxing than ever. After noticing increased numbers in both call and tour volumes, Landmark Apartment Trust conducted an informal study and found that their teams were missing a significant amount of calls due to time committed to touring prospects and assisting residents. As a company, they knew they could not afford to keep missing out on calls from prospective renters, so they started to look at the possibility of utilizing a call center service. Landmark researched a number of options and decided to test Property Solutions’ Leasing Center beginning in early 2014.
The Solution
Given their familiarity with several Property Solutions products, Landmark was able to clearly identify the potential advantage of housing all of their call and lead information on one unified platform. 'Because we use many products from Property Solutions, the integration between products is seamless,' says Brittany Wagner, Landmark’s Support Manager. 'Leasing Center agents are able to see real-time availability. If we make changes on the back end, the Leasing Center agents’ dashboards are updated immediately. Also, because we do use most of the products offered by Property Solutions, Leasing Center agents are also able to assist our residents with ResidentPortal questions as well as submitting and updating work orders. With other call centers that is not a smooth process.' Landmark initially kicked off call services with a pilot program for five communities. They opted to have Property Solutions’ Leasing Center handle both unanswered resident and lead calls during business hours, as well as all calls received after hours. The pilot was carried out in two phases and was closely coordinated between Landmark’s on-site teams and a Property Solutions support team. In order to gain familiarity with each individual property, property managers filled out an online survey that was delivered directly to the Leasing Center. Property Solutions provided daily updates on the progress of survey submissions and responded with follow-up questions.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.
