Reference template
EPM maintains one standard 26-position grid so service timing can be designed and managed consistently.
Annual Service Reference Schedule
One clear rhythm for the year.
EPM uses a 26-position Service Visit reference grid to organize recurring exterior maintenance over a 364-day cycle. The reference calendar shows the spacing; each customer's actual schedule starts from that property's activation date.
How the reference works
The grid stays consistent. The customer's dates move.
The January 1 calendar is a reference template—not a requirement that every EPM customer begins on January 1. When a property activates, that date becomes its Visit 1 and the 14-day sequence is shifted forward from there.
Customer activation
The customer's plan start date becomes that property's Visit 1 anchor.
Relative schedule
Visits continue at 14-day reference intervals while service-specific cadence rules determine what is actually due.
Example
A March 15 activation does not wait for January.
If a customer's active plan begins March 15, March 15 becomes Visit 1. The next reference positions are March 29, April 12, April 26 and so on. The service order and cadence logic remain intact while the dates shift.
Visit 1March 15 — customer activation anchor
Visit 2March 29
Visit 3April 12
Visit 4April 26
Visit 5May 10
Company-Wide Reference Schedule
Each reference visit shows the date and the services EPM plans to perform.
This is EPM's company reference template: Visit 1 is modeled on January 1, each following visit is spaced 14 days apart, and the planned services are assigned to the specific visit where EPM intends to perform them. A customer's activation date shifts the entire sequence while preserving the same visit order and service assignments.

How to read this: The January–December dates are the model reference dates. For an actual customer, their activation date becomes Visit 1 and every visit/service assignment moves forward by the same offset.
Service cadence
The visit grid is not the same thing as service frequency.
A Service Visit is an opportunity for scheduled work. Individual services appear only when their maintenance cadence requires them.
ServiceReference cadenceHow EPM uses it
Lawn MaintenanceSeasonalEvery 2 weeks in spring and summer, every 4 weeks in fall, and every 6 weeks in winter. Actual occurrences are derived from real plan dates and season boundaries.
Landscape MaintenancePlan scheduleShrub / hedge and landscape-bed maintenance are coordinated as one recurring landscape occurrence when included.
Periodic Exterior ServicesProperty-specificCleaning and other periodic services are assigned to appropriate Service Visits based on the approved plan frequency and property scope.
What customers see
Your plan shows the actual schedule—not just the reference model.
The reference calendar explains EPM's scheduling system. Once a Property Maintenance Plan is active, the customer-facing My EPM schedule shows the property's actual dates and exactly which services are planned for each upcoming Service Visit.
Next Scheduled Visit
See the real visit date and the specific services scheduled for that property.
Annual Maintenance Schedule
See how selected services are distributed across the property's active 12-month maintenance plan.
Service History
Completed visits remain attached to the property with customer-visible records and documentation.
Schedule changes stay connected
When operational changes are required, the updated customer schedule remains visible through the same My EPM property record.
Important distinction
Reference schedule vs. your Property Maintenance Plan.
