The Problem

Selecting the best team to clean your high risk data center is a challenge. The conventional custodial crew member is untrained in the specifics of cleaning this critical space, rarely has the unique tools required and is uneasy being in a high tech/risk room in the first place.

The Solution

The first part of the solution is in the selection of the people to do the cleaning. Day labor is too risky. While the tasks are simple, each operation must be undertaken by an associate with the intelligence to appreciate the financial risks involved, the discipline to work carefully, the integrity to pursue dirt and trash in the most awkward locations and the stamina to endure until the whole job is done. Our associates are trained specifically in the cleaning of high risk spaces and equipped with HEPA vacuums to prevent dirt from being reintroduced into the room as an aerosol. Their knowledge and experience regarding what not to touch and how to touch elements of a computer room is essential. Just the art of picking up and replacing the floor tile without damage must be learned and practiced. Most managers rightly fear the use of water in their data center because mops slop water uncontrollably. We eschew the use of mops in favor of scrubbing the floor on our hands and knees! This is the most careful way to clean. It minimizes the use of water while maintaining excellent water control. Hand scrubbing gives the best and most careful results of any cleaning method.

Our objective is to get the dirt into our buckets or vacuums and then to haul it out of the room!
