Housekeeping and Custodial Consulting

Core Management Services - Housekeeping Consulting At Its Best

Core Management Services, LLC is an independent housekeeping and custodial consulting firm. We do not provide janitorial services, nor do we sell cleaning supplies or equipment. Rather, we provide objective information and expertise to help you and your in-house staff attain and sustain higher cleaning quality levels and lower costs.

Our fees are primarily performance based - usually a percentage of your savings. Because those savings are linked to quality improvements that you help identify and quantify, we benefit as your facility exhibits improvement. We are motivated to help you and your staff succeed.

Statistics Show That You Can Benefit From Housekeeping Consulting

Recent trends indicate unprecedented pressures on in-house custodial managers to increase the value of their organizations and to become more competitive with outsourcing alternatives.
