425,000 square feet nobody needed to clean.
Identified 425,000 SF of overstated cleanable area across a 7.5M SF portfolio. Saved the client $408,000 per year in janitorial costs.
Case Study
01The Challenge
A cleaning contract built on the wrong area.
The client janitorial cleaning contract costs were inflated due to incorrect area calculations. An ineffective methodology had been used to determine cleanable areas across their 7.5 million+ square foot portfolio, resulting in systematic overpayment.
02The Solution
Clear, defensible cleanable area.
Stevenson Systems discovered the flawed calculation approach and provided clear, defendable area calculations. The corrected measurements revealed 425,000 square feet of overstated cleanable area across the portfolio.
03The Results
$408,000 a year back in the budget.
The accurate cleanable area measurements enabled successful renegotiation of janitorial service agreements, resulting in $408,000 in annual savings while maintaining service quality standards. The corrected calculations now serve as the baseline for all future contract negotiations.
