Facility Managers: it’s time to be proactive about your 2023 budget. Planning a budget is challenging yet crucial to ensuring departments operate efficiently and protect assets for the long haul. A simple way to control costs, resources, and time is by bundling FM services in an annual plan.
“Cutting costs is always top of mind for facility managers,” said Eric Wroldsen, SOLID’s Chief Sales Officer. “Bundling specialty maintenance and restoration FM services into a plan provided by a single vendor improves service performance, quality, and consistency. In addition, it reduces operating costs and allows FMs to spend time meeting other business goals.”
With a budget that includes bundled services, facilities managers and a surface care vendor work together to achieve results based on the facility’s needs and the type of services an agile, professionally trained company like SOLID can provide.
What Does Bundling FM Services Mean?
Bundling FM services works by combining two or more services into a consolidated care plan at a lower cost than purchasing each service separately. It also increases the number of specialty care services the vendor can provide while they are at your facility.
Some common FM services that can be bundled into one surface care plan include:
- Carpet: deep cleaning using our low moisture, wet or dry extraction methods
- Concrete: polished finishes, staining, and logo design, dust-proofing, sealing and densification, coatings and repair, slip and moisture testing
- Vinyl and Resilient: deep cleaning, restoration, waxing, and specialized sacrificial wear layers plus high-performance coatings
- Metal: Restoration: scratch removal, re-graining, and highlighting, field oxidation; Protective coatings and coverings
- Stone, Tile, and Terrazzo: cleaning and polishing, sealers, enhancers, high-performance coatings, and grout restoration
- Textile and Upholstery: deep cleaning
- Wood: preservation, restoration, and deep cleaning
- Other Services: disinfection, odor neutralization, and antimicrobial services
