How flexible is your cleaning support?

Posted by Glenn Cleaning, October 03, 2017

Flexible upscaling

If your business involves public events, regular or even impromptu, you’ll need cleaning staff to support those activities.

It follows that your support service should be equipped to handle your changing needs and to be available at short notice.

For your peace of mind, your supplier should be one that knows your business and upon whom you can rely for a great service, without having to brief a new team at a busy time.

The flexibility that comes with size

Larger cleaning organisations have access to more staff, allowing you to meet a sudden increase in workload.

Typically, they will offer a greater range of expertise, enabling them to manage a wide variety of tasks.

Bigger cleaning organisations are more likely to provide comprehensive, appropriate training to their staff,  who can then provide the high quality of service required during sudden peaks in demand.

Flexibility with quality assured

Any cleaning company could promise you a rapid increase in staffing – but will the extra personnel be of the right calibre?

A well-established firm with good recruitment techniques and rigorous training in ethical practice will ensure that the additional people will rise to the occasion and deliver what you need.

This will become even more critical should you require your cleaners to be visible to the public, for they will effectively be representing your company.

The flexibility of the ‘middle way’

On the one hand, you need the scale of a substantial organisation to provide a consistent service across all of your sites, and to support you during periods of intense activity.

On the other hand, you want a personalised service that meets your needs.

Support service providers that can offer a high degree of flexibility tend to also offer a personalised service developed through an intimate knowledge of your requirements. Ideally, such a supplier will offer a single account manager as their point of contact, allowing you to delegate much of the management to the cleaning provider.

Cleaning requirements are never ‘ordinary’

Many businesses operate in challenging environments – confined spaces, high-level areas, clinically-sterile premises – and need specialised help.

A flexible cleaning support organisation should be able to present credentials to demonstrate that they are as reliable, skilled and trustworthy as your work demands.
