Building Your 2026 Roadmap: Get Ahead by Closing the Gaps

It’s mid-year, and planning season is creeping in. Budgets, forecasts, and strategic initiatives for 2026 are already surfacing across boardrooms and department meetings. But one critical question often gets overlooked during roadmap planning,
 

Are you carrying your technology gaps into another year?

In real estate — especially in multifamily and commercial operations — tech inefficiencies tend to get buried under short-term project needs or legacy system habits. But left unchecked, they quietly drain your resources, limit visibility, and stall progress.


As you map out where your company is going in 2026, it's time to take a serious look at how your technology either supports—or limits—your goals. 


 

Why Tech Gaps Matter More Than You Think

A tech gap isn’t always as obvious as a missing system. More often, it shows up in the daily grind — those inefficient processes your team quietly works around without ever raising a flag. It might be a report that takes hours to compile each month because data lives in too many places. Or it’s an integration between systems that never quite functioned as promised, so now someone manually double-checks everything.


Sometimes it’s a module in Yardi or RealPage that was purchased but never properly implemented, leaving valuable functionality—and potential cost savings—untapped. In other cases, the problem is more serious: outdated access controls or unmonitored user accounts that quietly open the door to security risks.


Individually, these gaps may seem small. But together, they create friction across your operations. They slow down employee onboarding, delay decision-making, impact resident and tenant satisfaction, and quietly erode your ROI. The longer they’re ignored, the more expensive they become.



What Real Estate Leaders Are Asking Right Now

Whether you're an IT leader, asset manager, or operations exec, you’re probably grappling with one or more of these questions:


  • Do our systems support our long-term asset strategy—or just keep the lights on?
  • Where are we duplicating effort across teams and tools?
  • What’s costing us time that could be automated?
  • Are we leveraging our current platforms fully—especially Yardi?
  • Do we have the data we need to make fast, informed decisions? 

If the answers are unclear or inconsistent, you’re likely sitting on avoidable inefficiency.



Three Actions You Can Take This Summer

As you prep your 2026 roadmap, now is the time to:


1. Document Your Current Systems and Workflows

Get clear on what platforms, modules, and integrations you're actually using. Map out how information flows (or doesn’t) between systems. This isn't busywork—it’s the foundation for meaningful improvement.


2. Ask Your Team: What’s Not Working?

Your best insights come from the people in the trenches. Survey or interview users in accounting, leasing, facilities, and reporting. Ask what slows them down, what they avoid, or where they’ve created manual workarounds.


3. Schedule a Tech Gap Assessment

Bring in a neutral third party—like D2D Consulting—to help identify the gaps that matter most. We look at where you are now, where you want to go, and what needs to change to get there—whether that’s system optimization, new integrations, or smarter workflows.



Don’t Build a Roadmap on a Cracked Foundation

If you’re serious about efficiency, growth, and resilience in 2026, it starts with fixing what’s already slowing you down. Don’t let another planning cycle go by without a real look at your technology foundation.
