The University of North Carolina (UNC) has announced a new notification system regarding elevator outages, The Daily Tar Heel student newspaper reports. The system, created through a partnership between UNC Facilities Services and Emergency Management and Planning, is accessible through the Carolina Ready Safety App. These notifications, along with a corresponding dashboard, will notify app users of elevator outages. Users will have the ability to monitor the dashboard to stay updated on the progress of reported outages and see other elevator outage reports across campus. However, there will be no follow-up push notifications after the initial outage report. Following an outage report, Media Relations said “licensed maintenance personnel are dispatched to assess the situation.” After Building Services receives confirmation of the outage, an update will be logged into the elevator dashboard.
