The company’s Smart Operations Solutions optimize property
performance, streamline tasks and improve collaboration for
modernized community management. From automating maintenance
workflows and inspections to enhancing resident and team
communications, Smart Operations answers key operational challenges
with offerings that:
- Enhance centralization capabilities – Work Management and
Answer Automation provide streamlined operations and improved
communications through a simplified task management platform that
allows teams to easily manage their entire portfolio.
- Improve due diligence processes – Inspection Management and
Audit Management automate the due diligence process to enable
informed decision-making and reduce risk.
- Empower residents and site teams – Smart Operations Solutions
work seamlessly with smart home devices to create elevated
experiences for residents and site teams when communicating,

“Purpose-built innovation is at the heart of everything we do.
Our goal is to accelerate the deployment of solutions and
capabilities that build out and enhance our enterprise-level
platform that many of the largest firms in the industry rely on to
run efficiently and improve their residents’ experience,” said
Daryl Stemm, SmartRent Chief Financial Officer and interim
Principal Executive Officer. “Our initial focus will be to
transform Smart Operations. This investment enables us to continue
pushing the boundaries of new solutions and possibilities in smart
technology, and underscores our commitment to platform superiority
and operational excellence.”
Over the course of 2025, the company expects to invest in Smart
Operations features designed to aid centralized property
management, AI workflow and preventive maintenance to increase
enterprise functionality and end-user and resident satisfaction for
the rental housing industry. Several enhancements embedded in Work
Management coming in the new year are:
- Teams – Enables one team to work across a portfolio of
communities by assigning tasks to teams of technicians and
organizing work based on availability and skillset for optimal
efficiency.
- Increased Assets functionality - Additional, in-depth
visibility into property and in-unit physical assets to lower spend
and ensure supply chain availability.
- Smart Launch – Empowers users to efficiently navigate and
complete everyday tasks and boost productivity via AI
capabilities.
The company’s 2025 investment plan builds from recently
completed improvements, including enhanced dashboards for
actionable insights into property performance and portfolio data
and the automation of traditionally manual processes and workflows.
Additional enhancements included upgraded task calendar views to
drive productivity with a customizable monthly and weekly
visualization of work across one community or an entire portfolio
and resident-driven scheduling to empower residents to select
service request time completion.
“As a long-term SmartRent customer, it has been exciting to see
their technologies and solutions continue to meet needs we didn’t
even know we had,” said Amy Chien, Director of Strategic
Innovations at BH Management. “We were thrilled to see the
portfolio and property-level insights available in their recently
launched dashboards. The thoughtful and customizable filtering
options provide a quick view library that enables you to visualize
operations progress like never before. SmartRent continues to
deliver solutions that reshape the way we track and manage
operations.”
Maintenance teams using SmartRent’s Work Management appreciate
its ease of use and ability to make operations more efficient.
SmartRent customer Capital Square Living started transitioning its
third-party managed portfolio to in-house management of its owned
assets in 2024, which included adding Work Management to their
technology stack.
“We wanted to be very selective and intentional about assembling
our tech stack during the transition, and encouraged feedback from
our service team,” said Ryan Perez, Executive Vice President of
Capital Square Living. “Several teams had been using SightPlan
(Smart Operations) and were adamant about continuing to use it due
to its superior functionality and user-friendliness. SmartRent
checked all the boxes of how we envision our operations to
function. Under SmartRent, the platform continues to evolve and
improve its functionality, and the continued investment
demonstrates their dedication to being the long-term partner who
meets our needs for the foreseeable future.”
