Balancing cost-effectiveness with cleanliness, data driven cleaning processes are revolutionising facility cleaning. This advancement is particularly significant as modern work environments evolve, with an increasing number of employees working remotely throughout the year.
Many offices experience reduced occupancy during holidays, business trips, and the rise of permanent work-from-home arrangements. Despite these changes, traditional cleaning schedules often remain tied to regular working hours, leading to unnecessary costs and environmental impact.
Cleaners frequently service empty rooms, resulting in excessive energy consumption, water usage, and the wasteful deployment of cleaning materials. The lack of transparency regarding cleaning needs makes efficient planning challenging.
Addressing this issue, Dex has developed a smart cleaning solution that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize cleaning routes and schedules. This data-driven approach ensures that cleaning is conducted only where needed, minimising unnecessary routes and promoting sustainability in infrastructural facility management.
Customized Cleaning Concepts Informed by Data
Solution relies on up-to-date room utilisation data from various sources, including room plans, occupancy systems, and IoT sensors. This information converges on an online platform, where existing facility management systems can also be integrated seamlessly.
Using AI, system automatically calculates the most efficient cleaning routes. Cleaners equipped with tablets or smartphones access an intuitive app displaying the routes, building floor plans, and cleaning tasks. Real-time communication with administrative staff is facilitated through a chat function, allowing for immediate adjustments.
Bringing the efficiency in Cleaning Operations
This smart cleaning solution offers notable benefits, including significant cost savings of around 30% per week in operational management and an average annual execution cost reduction of approximately 15%, varying by country and industry.
Beyond cost efficiency, digitising facility cleaning with IoT integration contributes to sustainability. Reduced resource consumption, minimised plastic waste, and adherence to environmental compliances.
Optimised Facility Services in Healthcare
In addition to benefiting facility management companies, solution addresses critical needs in healthcare facilities. Efficient communication and rapid response to cleaning requirements are crucial in healthcare settings where patient admission, treatment, and minimising health risks are top priorities.
This smart cleaning application facilitates direct communication between hospital staff and cleaners, ensuring immediate notification and confirmation of completed tasks. This streamlined process enhances healthcare efficiency and enables medical staff to focus on essential tasks, ultimately improving patient care.
