ManageClean and Clean Smarts Partnership

Over 900 attendees at the 2021 ISSA North America trade show gathered to get the latest insights into news, products, and technology impacting building service contractors (BSC), commercial cleaning, and janitorial services.

Several robust solution providers were exhibiting to show BSCs how to automate and streamline cleaning business processes using their solutions when it comes to software and technology in the commercial cleaning space.

How Does the ManageClean / Clean Smarts Partnership Help Commercial Cleaning?

SEIDOR ManageClean and Clean Smarts are exhibited in side-by-side booths to emphasize the two companies' partnership. With ManageClean providing commercial cleaning management software and CleanSmarts providing a janitorial cloud and mobile application, they represent an entire back-office and field software suite for the industry. Data sharing ability between the two solutions eliminates the need for manual data entry between unconnected software.

ManageClean Features the BSCs Found Most Important

Here are the features of ManageClean software that commercial cleaning professionals felt were the most important:

• Integrated Software System: BSCs like the idea of an integrated software system for the back office that would include accounting, cleaning contracts, customers, purchasing, and supplies inventory management. Many felt that running QuickBooks and multiple point solutions was inefficient and made it difficult to get a complete picture of the business.
• Profit and Loss by Location: BSCs were amazed by the ability of ManageClean to produce a profit and loss report for each customer location serviced, which shows precisely how much money a cleaning company is making on each client by month/year.
• Integration to Field Mobile App: ManageClean and Clean Smarts share customer data, and the cleaning service staff can record work against each client. Timekeeping, special services charges, and other expense items are sent from Clean Smarts back to ManageClean, so that office staff doesn’t have to re-create or manually enter that data. For example, tasks lists are provided in Clean Smarts to employees to know what they are supposed to do at each client location. If there was an inspection task or issue that is resolvable that is billable to a client, that feeds back into ManageClean without re-entering the information.

Specific Challenges BSCs Are Facing That CleanSmarts Solves

In talking with Brent Monson from Clean Smarts, he shared the specific challenges that commercial cleaning and BSCs are facing that Clean Smarts will solve.

• Ensuring Cleaning Employees Are On-Site: With the commercial cleaning mobile app of Clean Smarts, the BSCs can make sure employees are on-site and doing what they are supposed to be doing when they are supposed to be doing it. Shift scheduling in the Clean Smarts software defines the schedule and location for every employee. If an employee doesn’t clock in when they are supposed to, an alert is sent to the shift supervisor.
• GeoLocation Features of CleanSmarts: Cleaning employees run Clean Smarts on either their smartphones or on a company-provided smartphone. Either way, the geolocation tracking of smartphones allows Clean Smarts to know the phone's exact location at the time of clock in or clock out.
• Multiple Clock In and Clock Out Options: Clock in and clock out features allow employees to dial into a toll-free number, clock in by text, or scan a bar code or QR code when arriving at the client location.

With SEIDOR ManageClean and Clean Smarts integration, commercial cleaning services can streamline back-office processes and manage field cleaning employees with robust cloud-based software solutions that maximize efficiency and improve business operations.
