Imagine a world where AI-driven programs optimize cleaning services in real time, predictive maintenance prevents equipment downtime, robots assist janitors, and virtual reality enhances staff training. At C&W Services, this future is now!

Propmodo, a leading publication on technology in commercial real estate, recently featured our Head of Solutions, Alec Humphries, in a story about how C&W Services leverages technology to provide significant client advantages. In the article “Emerging Tech is Transforming How Commercial Buildings are Cleaned,” Alec, with his deep understanding and expertise, delved into our use of emerging tech, including AI, to drive results. He shared insights on Hybrid Clean, robotic cleaners, IoT technology, predictive maintenance AI, and more, reinforcing the importance of our innovative solutions.

Propmodo typically highlights industry technology, innovation, and trends in real estate. The story, published May 29, explains how C&W Services uses emerging technology for actual service offerings to drive client results. The article by Nick Pipitone explores our development of Hybrid Clean, which uses AI-driven programs while leveraging occupancy data and sensors to optimize cleaning services based on real-time insights. Alec emphasizes the substantial cost savings for clients using Hybrid Clean: “Office occupiers are paying for janitorial services like their offices have full-time occupancy,” Alec tells the publication, “but they’re overpaying because of hybrid work and sporadic use of the office.”

Additionally, AI can analyze data for predictive maintenance and identify potential issues with cleaning equipment. That benefit can bring significant savings by preventing equipment downtime while ensuring consistent cleanliness.

C&W Services’s embrace of technology extends into many areas. The company also deploys Relay, a cellular device that translates languages for staff. In the story, Alec even touches on using virtual and augmented reality for training purposes in safety and other areas.

While the janitorial industry has historically been labor-intensive, technology is increasingly instrumental. Learn more about how C&W Services uses emerging technology to impact our business. Read the full story: Emerging Tech is Transforming How Commercial Buildings are Cleaned.
