Before the walk-through
We confirm the facility type, address, contact, reason for the quote and suitable inspection time. Existing scopes or floor plans can help, but they are not required for the first conversation.

CIC practical guide
The inspection connects what the client expects with what the cleaning team must actually do, access and manage.
Areas and task requirements
The walk-through identifies work areas, amenities, kitchens, entries, floors, glass, waste points and any external or specialist priorities. We discuss what is currently working and where the problems are.
Frequency and operating window
Occupancy, trading hours, shifts and building access help determine how often different areas need service and when the work can happen.
Access, equipment and site controls
Keys, alarms, inductions, parking, lifts, storage, restricted rooms and equipment access can affect both mobilisation and price.
After the inspection
CIC prepares a proposed scope and quote based on the information collected. Questions or assumptions should be resolved before commencement so both parties understand the service.
