Janitorial Distributors Require Better Contracts

By Jocelyn Davidson


Commercial cleaning distributors need to develop better contracts to manage their business dealings with other janitor contractors, education institutions, and hospitals. This is essential for all janitorial distributors, as all these companies or firms need to keep their offices and vicinities clean on a daily basis. These commercial cleaning service contracts will govern all these various services, and it is very important to start a business relationship with one.

Not even employers themselves would disagree that business owners should provide healthy and safe workplaces for their many employees. Of course, these employers will go to professional commercial cleaning services to help in this endeavor. In turn, the commercial cleaning services have to provide well-written service contracts to avoid any penalties or financial losses when dealing with outside companies.

Janitors need equipment, products, and supplies to do their jobs. All these things need to be rented or bought, an availability that needs to be clearly mentioned in the contract. More than equipment or products, companies need resources in the first place. These come with certain costs, such as insurance and other financial plans.

Each service comes with its own cost of labor, energy, and even tax; and they must all be mentioned right in the contract. Most importantly, the type of service the distributors will provide should be mentioned as well. Transportation of the commercial cleaning staff and other components required to do the jobs well is also an important factor to mention in the contract.

Given the nature of the job, we need to consider safety plan for the staff and it does not come for free. Marketing is key aspect and hence if any money spent on marketing need to be included. Hence add both marketing and safety expenses into the contract.

In addition to business expenses, you need to add the costs your clients will need to pay for your distribution services as well. The total expenditure of your services comes into play when all the above service expenses are added into the equation. Therefore, it's important that you make sure you'll still receive some profit on top of both expenses and service costs.

After you've done the calculations and have written down a plan that will provide you with the desired amount of profit yield, take the proposal you have and contact your client in person to negotiate a deal. However, keep in mind that before all of this, the contract has to cover all the aspects that have already been discussed.

In order to have better negotiations, you must always keep this in mind. In the end, you'll be left with a very effective business relationship and a safe environment for your staff. Do not falsely advertise any services either. This will only worsen the business relationship.
