Avoiding Health Hazards
If you work in manufacturing or the quick service restaurant industry, keeping your facilities up to code and following state regulations will keep health hazards low and avoid the risk of fines. ACC takes pride in our long history of helping companies source the best cleaning supplies, and will find the most cost-effective solution to reduce janitorial spend for your campus, corporate locations or PE portfolio.
There has never been a better time to assess your cleaning program. Consistency and diligence in keeping your spaces sanitized is critical to operations. Keep track of what products are effective and what your workforce responds well to. Cleaning supplies you may have found necessary in the past may not be as important right now, while more powerful disinfectants may be necessary. ACC works with experts in the janitorial field to ensure your facilities are cleaned at the correct intervals and with the right products. While Covid-19 has made many areas more difficult for businesses, ACC can alleviate the open questions when it comes to your janitorial needs. Let our team of janitorial and sanitation experts provide a complimentary cost analysis of your cleaning spend, as well as other indirect procurement categories that could benefit from a procurement cost reduction review.
Understand the Performance and Cost of your Janitorial Supplies and Services
Before your business can begin the process of reducing the cost to your sanitation supplies and janitorial services, it’s important to understand exactly how much you’re spending across your facilities on this indirect expense category. The ACC cost reduction team will analyze the market, look at similar businesses to and compare your purchasing activity to understanding where your expenses originate down to the SKU level.
Cost Reduction Process for Janitorial and Sanitation
ACC has national purchasing agreements and relationships with top suppliers that most organizations struggle to leverage on their own. Our team will gain a deep understanding of your sanitation needs and requirements for each department, location and area of your organization. We will establish a baseline of your current expenditures and work with your incumbents if preferred, as well as our trusted network, to achieve meaningful bottom line improvement. Once new pricing is established, we will implement the new agreements on your behalf to lower your janitorial pricing. Finally we issue our proprietary savings audit with the updated pricing to ensure your team is purchasing the most cost-effective sanitation supplies.
Frequently Asked Questions About Purchasing Masks and PPE for Business
Does it make a difference to buy supplies in bulk?
As a rule, buying janitorial supplies in bulk is much more cost effective than purchasing smaller quantities, especially if you have a safe storage facility to allow for the storage of chemical cleaners. However, with Covid-19 upon us, it’s important to make sure you’re purchasing the correct supplies in bulk. Some supplies are more important than others right now, so those should be the primary focus for your business.
What are the risks to be aware of with janitorial supplies and services?
The two biggest elements to watch for with Janitorial Supplies and Services are the terms of your contract and fair market pricing. As with every market, sanitation supply prices fluctuate. Staying with the same “trusted” vendor of a long period of time opens your business to overpaying of products over a long period of time. It’s also important to watch for contract expiration. Many auto-renew agreements have percent price increase built in. Staying on top of the market and knowing when your contract will expire can keep your janitorial and sanitation pricing low.
How exactly would ACC reduce janitorial costs?
Our main focus with Janitorial Supplies and Services is to lower your expenses with local, regional, and national vendors based on the specific scope of service requirements for your individual business needs. Our team also takes quality and service into account, as well as contract terms. We look at all angles to ensure you’re getting the best price and service available.
