EV charging in the garage: system design, rules, and timeline
ContextWhat we’re decidingSystem architecture: individual-only, centralized infrastructure, or hybrid scalableNon-negotiable requirements: metering, load management, safety inspectionsPreferred works window for garage interventionsHow to participateRank the system options, then select all mandatory requirements. Finally, select all works windows that are compatible for you (multi-select recommended). In comments: estimate how many EV users we may have in the next 12 months and note any garage constraints (cable routes, sensitive common areas).More residents are requesting EV (and plug-in hybrid) charging in the shared garage. We can either allow individual installations case-by-case, or adopt a building-level scalable system that avoids repeated works, electrical overload risk, and future disputes.This decision affects safety (capacity, protections, fire risk), fairness (only users pay), and future-proofing (ready for more charging points). To demonstrate Concorder’s mixed-option depth, the options include attachments (guides/legal reference), pros/cons, and a separate vote on the works window using date ranges.
Central water softener: quotes and maintenance plan
ContextWe are considering installing (or replacing) a central water softener to reduce limescale on pipes and shared equipment (booster pump, heat exchangers, central plant), lower breakdown risk, and improve efficiency. Quotes differ in sizing assumptions, regeneration approach, salt management, monitoring, and maintenance coverage.This is not only a price decision: it’s about reliability, annual running costs, service response time, and avoiding undersizing. This proposal showcases Concorder by combining ranking on quotes, a multi-select vote on non-negotiable requirements, and a date-range vote for the works window (because water interruptions are operationally important).What we’re decidingWhich softener option to approveWhich requirements must be mandatory (quality checks, SLA, transparency)Which works window is most compatible (minimising disruption)How to participateRank the options, select the mandatory requirements, then choose all works windows that work for you. In comments: describe current issues (scale, breakdowns, pressure) and whether you prefer full-service maintenance or more internal handling.
Elevator modernization bids and outage schedule
We are considering an elevator modernization to improve reliability, accessibility, and safety. The decision is not only about price: we need to compare scope (controller, doors, cabin upgrades), warranty terms, maintenance response times, and how the contractor manages resident disruption and safety during works.Because elevator downtime is a major impact (especially for residents with mobility constraints), the schedule window is part of the decision. This proposal demonstrates Concorder by using ranking for bid approval (each bid includes detailed HTML scope and targeted pros/cons), plus a separate vote on acceptable work windows using date ranges. Attachments reference the EU lift safety framework so residents can ask the right questions about compliance and documentation.Which bid we approve for modernizationWhich work window(s) are acceptableWhich contract requirements must be mandatoryRank the bids, then choose the work windows that are feasible. In comments: add resident constraints (strollers, medical needs), preferred notice period, and any observed current issues (breakdowns, door faults, leveling problems).
Parcel lockers in the lobby: siting, safety, and rollout
Deliveries are increasing and missed parcels create friction (re-deliveries, theft risk, concierge burden). Parcel lockers in the entrance lobby can reduce missed deliveries and improve security—but only if the siting and fire-safety approach is acceptable. Common areas often serve as escape routes, so any installation must avoid obstructing evacuation paths and should be assessed against relevant safety guidance.This proposal showcases Concorder by keeping decisions separate: we choose the installation approach, we agree on rollout timing, and we vote on exact placement options because the physical location is genuinely part of the decision.Which locker approach to adoptWhich rollout window works bestWhich placement(s) are acceptable in the lobbyRank the approach options, then choose timing windows and placement points you can live with. In comments: note mobility/accessibility needs, circulation constraints, and any current issues (door congestion, queuing, theft incidents).
