Vendor advisory
Everything around the cleaning contract, handled for you.
Finding a cleaner, running a fair bid, writing a contract that holds, and defining what clean actually means. We do the parts most buyers get wrong, and we do them on your side of the table.
Find a cleaner
Hire a vendor who can back up the pitch
Anyone can win a first meeting. We shortlist independent cleaners, confirm insurance and bonding, find out whether they subcontract, and call references that are real. You sign with confidence instead of hope.
Because we never take a fee from the cleaner, the shortlist is built on fit and quality, not on who pays us. If a vendor is not right for your space, we say so.

Contracts & bidding
Write the scope before you talk price
Most cleaning problems are baked in at the contract stage. When bidders define their own scope, the lowest number hides the most gaps. We write a single scope, send it to qualified cleaners, and lay the bids side by side so you compare like for like.
We also review contracts you already have and flag what is missing, especially the quality standard and the accountability clause that most agreements skip.
SOP development
Define what clean means, in writing
A standard operating procedure spells out every task, room by room, so quality does not depend on who showed up that night. It makes training faster, bidding fairer, and auditing objective.
We build SOPs that any cleaner, current or future, can follow to the same result, tailored to your space and any compliance requirements you carry.

Unbiased pricing
Know what your cleaning should cost before you sign or renew
We benchmark your building against fair market rates for its size, frequency, and scope. If you are overpaying, you get the numbers to renegotiate. If you are underpaying, you learn why the work keeps slipping. Either way, the figure comes from your building, not a competitor's random quote.

Advisory questions
How do I vet a commercial cleaning company before I hire one?
Confirm they carry liability insurance and bonding, ask for references and actually call them, find out whether they subcontract the work, and put the scope of work in writing before you talk price. Most bad hires skip one of those steps.
We can run the full vetting process for you, from shortlist to reference checks, so you sign with a cleaner who can back up their pitch.
What should be in a commercial cleaning contract?
A clear scope of work, the frequency of each task, who supplies materials, a written quality standard, and a way to hold the vendor accountable when the standard slips. The last two are the ones most contracts leave out, and they are the ones that protect you.
We write and review cleaning contracts so the agreement actually defines what you are buying.
How do I run a fair bid for cleaning services?
Give every bidder the exact same scope of work and square footage so you are comparing like for like. When bidders define their own scope, the lowest number usually hides the most gaps.
We build the bid package, send it to qualified cleaners, and lay the responses side by side so you can choose on real value instead of a headline price.
What is a cleaning SOP and why do I need one?
A standard operating procedure is a written, task-by-task definition of what clean means for your space, room by room. Without one, quality depends entirely on who happened to show up that night.
We build SOPs that any cleaner, current or future, can follow to the same standard, which also makes bidding and auditing far easier.
How do I know if my cleaning company is overcharging me?
You compare the price against the scope and the square footage, not against another random quote. Overcharging usually hides in vague scopes, tasks listed but never done, or a frequency you are paying for and not receiving.
We review your contract and invoices line by line and tell you what the work should actually cost. If you are overpaying, you will have the numbers to renegotiate.
