The ever-evolving landscape of office cleaning services demands that providers keep their finger on the pulse of emerging trends if they want to continue providing the best possible office cleaning services to clients.
Since the events of 2020, workplaces in New Zealand have learned to flex and adapt. Commercial cleaning company’s have had to adopt this flexible attitude in order to keep up with the demand for exemplary hygiene practices, a more hybrid workforce, and deepening concerns about the products used within the workplace in terms of sustainability and the eco-footprint businesses are creating.
Choosing a provider that can stay abreast of emerging trends and participate in transformative practices is important. Here we will run through a few of the emerging trends in office cleaning services and we will discuss how you can connect with everything you need to keep your business at the forefront of developing attitudes and practices.
Automated Tracking Systems
Office cleaning services need to be properly tracked to ensure quality standards are met. When you are looking for a provider, it pays to check whether they are moving with the times when it comes to Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems. Ask about the ticketing system your provider is using to ensure accurate tracking of enquiries, special requests, improvement mapping, and alarm and key security. In addition, if your leaning service is utilising a CRM platform to ensure reactive and proactive site checking is forefronted, you should be able to rely on consistent delivery of optimal service.
Supervised Office Cleaning Services
In order to get the best results, your office cleaning services should be fully supervised, and you should be able to get in touch with your dedicated Account Manager 24/7. Select a cleaning service that trains all staff to a consistently high level and enquire about who will be on-site while your offices are being cleaned. Having a supervised crew for every visit will ensure that standards are kept high and you can relax in terms of security. Look for supervised teams and vetted cleaners, and be sure to ask whether uniforms and ID are mandatory requirements for all staff.
Sustainable Practices
Now, more than ever, sustainable approaches to office cleaning services are important. Your cleaning service should be able to assist you in meeting your environmental sustainability goals. There should be an option to utilise separate bins for your recycling and your compost waste and you need to know whether less toxic products are being used wherever possible. If you are aiming to be a big part of the solution, look for a cleaning company that is going the extra mile with initiatives that give back to the community and the planet.
Customisation Options
An exciting emerging trend in office cleaning services for modern workspaces is increasing customisation options. While not all providers will offer a tailor-made approach to your requirements, this is something you should look for when doing your due diligence before selecting the right team. You should be able to change your schedule and your cleaning requirements at relatively short notice, call your service for emergency clean-ups and request special occasional cleaning when you need it.
Scheduling Options
While traditionally, office cleaning services have taken place at night; an emerging trend is increased flexibility for your scheduling options. It may be that you have a 24-hour operation, you may prefer to have a team come in while operations are in full swing, and it may suit you better to be able to lock up at the end of the day without having to think about people being onsite overnight. Look for increased flexibility in scheduling options and the ability to book day cleaning if that is what works best for you.
Cutting Edge Equipment
While the trusty old mop and bucket is still a thing, cleaning technology has moved ahead in leaps and bounds. Alongside more environmentally friendly cleaning solutions, you should check in with your office cleaning services regarding the specialised equipment and machinery they are able to bring to your site to ensure optimal results. You may have hardwood floors, special window treatments, or the necessity to have a particular polish added to your meeting room, and your provider should be able to deliver exceptional outcomes whatever your specialised needs might be.
