What the app prevents

Managing jobs from three different apps?

  • 01

    Still building bids in spreadsheets? The industry average net margin is 6.3% — the difference between that and 15–20% is almost always in how the bid was built.

  • 02

    Bidding the same building at the wrong production rate creates a 65% labor cost gap. You won't know until the contract is bleeding.

  • 03

    200% annual turnover. Every replacement costs $1,000–$5,000. If your crew management is WhatsApp, you're rebuilding tribal knowledge every time someone quits.

Frequently asked

Common questions before you try it

How much does SweepOps cost?
SweepOps Starter is $99/month (up to 10 cleaners, ISSA-standard bidding engine, scheduling, invoicing, basic reporting). Growth is $149/month (up to 30 cleaners, adds GPS tracking, client portal, job costing, payroll integration). Scale is $249/month (unlimited cleaners, multi-location, contract management, API access, dedicated support). Month-to-month, cancel anytime. Annual billing saves 17% ($990/yr, $1,490/yr, $2,490/yr).
What are ISSA cleaning times?
ISSA 612 contains 540+ task-level production rates measuring how many square feet a cleaner covers per hour by task and equipment. A 12-inch upright vacuum covers 2,239 sq ft/hr; a 14-inch backpack vacuum covers 7,407 sq ft/hr — the same building produces a 65% labor cost gap depending on which rate you use. As of January 2026, California legislated a 2,000 sq ft/hr cap for cleaning employees, making ISSA-based bidding a compliance requirement in that state.
Is SweepOps built for commercial cleaning specifically?
Yes. Built exclusively for commercial janitorial companies, not residential. ISSA-standard bidding, multi-site management, crew tracking, and quality inspection tools.
Can I try SweepOps before paying?

Do I need to sign an annual contract?
No. Month-to-month. Cancel anytime with no penalties.
How is SweepOps different from ServiceWorks?
ServiceWorks users report data loss, crashes, and unusable mobile apps. SweepOps is built from scratch for reliability, with an ISSA-standard bidding engine that ServiceWorks lacks.
What software do commercial cleaning companies use?
Commercial cleaning companies use a range of tools depending on their size. Janitorial-specific platforms like SweepOps, Swept, and Janitorial Manager handle scheduling, inspections, and crew management. Many smaller operators still use spreadsheets for bidding and WhatsApp for crew communication, usually until inconsistent bids or a lost contract forces the switch to dedicated software.
How do commercial cleaning companies bid jobs accurately?
Accurate commercial cleaning bids use ISSA 612 production rates: 540+ task-level figures for how many square feet a cleaner covers per hour by task and equipment type. You divide each area by its production rate to get labor hours, multiply by your fully-loaded rate ($18/hr base becomes $23–28/hr with taxes and workers comp — a $5–10/hr hidden cost most operators miss), then add mobilization time (15–30 minutes per visit = 5.5–11 unbilled hours per month on a daily contract), materials, overhead, and margin. Industry data puts BSC bid win rates at 20–30% (BSCAI), and the contracts that get won are disproportionately the ones that were underpriced — a dynamic sometimes called the winner's curse. SweepOps automates the calculation so every bid reflects true cost.
Is there software specifically for janitorial and commercial cleaning companies?
Yes. Unlike generic field service tools (Jobber, Housecall Pro), janitorial-specific platforms include cleaning-specific features: ISSA cleaning time standards for bidding, per-site crew assignment, inspection checklists by room and task, and client-facing quality reports. SweepOps, Swept, and Janitorial Manager are built specifically for commercial cleaning. Generic tools work at small scale but lack the multi-site structure commercial cleaning companies need.
What is the failure rate for cleaning companies?
50% of cleaning businesses fail within five years; 18–20% don't survive the first year. The top failure drivers, ranked by frequency in industry research: inadequate employee training, absence of a business plan, and poor financial management. 80% of commercial cleaning companies report difficulty finding and retaining qualified staff. The industry-average net margin is 6.3% (IBISWorld five-year average) — companies that systematize bidding, scheduling, and quality control early tend to stay in the 10–20% range.
How much do cleaning companies spend on labor?
Labor consumes 50–60% of every revenue dollar in commercial cleaning. ISSA frames it more starkly: 85–95% of total cleaning costs are labor-related when you include wages, taxes, workers comp, training, and turnover. The industry averages 200% annual turnover — every replacement costs $1,000–$5,000 in direct costs, up to 3–4x salary when you account for lost productivity, retraining, and coverage gaps. Best-in-class BSCs keep turnover at 28–40%.
What is the California cleaning production rate law?
As of January 2026, California capped the cleaning production rate for employees at 2,000 square feet per hour — a first-of-its-kind regulation in the U.S. The law forces California bids to align more closely with ISSA 612 standards. Companies already bidding from ISSA production rate data are largely compliant; companies using flat-rate-per-square-foot estimating or gut-feel pricing may need to recalculate their California contracts.
