The guidance outlines five criteria for evaluating commercial cleaning providers, from written scopes of work to quality-control systems.
CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, UNITED STATES — JAN-PRO Cleaning & Disinfecting in Charlotte has released guidance for business owners and facility managers on evaluating commercial cleaning providers, outlining five criteria commonly used to assess whether a cleaning program will remain consistent over the life of a contract.
In the company’s experience, service consistency is among the reasons businesses cite most often when changing cleaning providers. According to the guidance, five elements indicate an established commercial cleaning program:
- A written, specific scope of work. A documented scope states what is cleaned and how often, from daily tasks to periodic work, and gives both parties a reference point for what each service includes.
- Personnel continuity. Cleaning quality is affected by whether the same trained team services a building over time. Providers can be asked how accounts are staffed and how continuity is maintained.
- A quality-control system. Inspections, checklists, and a defined process for reporting and correcting missed areas convert a service promise into a measurable standard.
- Industry-specific knowledge. Medical offices, financial institutions, and industrial sites have different cleaning requirements, and established providers train for the facility types they serve.
- Insurance, certification, and clear accountability. Insurance and certification are standard indicators of an established commercial provider, along with clarity about who is responsible when an issue arises.
“Price is the easiest thing to compare, so it tends to dominate the decision,” said Kim Blythe, President & Owner at JAN-PRO of Charlotte. “The question buyers ask least often is whether the quality holds visit after visit — and in our experience, that is the one that decides whether the relationship lasts.”
