GCI Certification for Job Bids
We have heard the story many times over the last twenty years, but it is always rewarding to hear that the GCI Green cleaning firm certification was part of the bid requirements and one of our GCI firms was able to win the bid.
Building managers for commercial buildings routinely put out a contract bidding offer to multiple cleaning services to read. In turn, the janitorial services will make a quote to win the job. There are many games that can be played. Some companies bid low to win the job knowing that they will underperform on the job because full compliance will make the job a negative gain.
In some cases, a favored cleaning service suggests bid requirements that highly favor the features of their company.
Legitimately, the bid requirements should be a level field for all cleaning services, and the winner should be able to make a fair amount of profit.
In light of the new Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) expectations of the current administration, bids should require a Green certification from a reputable third-party organization. The mere display of a purchased logo should not satisfy this requirement.
The Green Clean Institute has twenty years as an independent certification service, and the GCI certification is a trusted federal trademark. The GCI Green Cleaning Firm logo on the website is not a pretense. The GCI certification is affordable, attainable, and stands as one of the best training and certification in the country.
