Luxury Fashion - Case Study

  | by Malcolm Hills

Our client is a luxury goods shop and fashion house that has traded in London for centuries.

 

Think FM recently started working with their team to look after both their office and retail space, located all in one building.

 

They had unfortunately suffered a long running, very poor experience with a high profile luxury retail cleaning company that they had been using for a number of years.

  • No disruption to tenants or building users

  • Proactive cleaning operatives
  • Regular cover, never without cleaners when they need them
  • Supervisor on site daily, area manager on site weekly
  • Monthly meetings with the Think FM Operations Director

Cleaning Operatives:

  • Treated fairly and paid at least the London Living Wage
  • Closely managed and supported

Implementation

  • Scoped out a rigorous cleaning schedule, optimising hours and ensuring high standards
  • Implemented Timegate, a geofenced time and attendance system for reporting
  • Built strong relationships with the team
  • Responded quickly to any urgent requests, going above and beyond to meet needs promptly

Results

  • 100% of contracted hours delivered every month
  • Full site audit carried out monthly
  • We mobilised our operatives very quickly, so that our client was never without cleaners
  • Our operations team were able to organise a large cleaning force, to go in and carry out the deep clean at just 1 day’s notice, so we could elevate the standards on site with immediate effect

“The communication has been consistently prompt, clear, and professional. The quality of their cleaning is exceptional. Each visit leaves our space immaculate, demonstrating great attention to detail and care. It is evident that they take pride in their work, and the results are consistently impressive. I would highly recommend Think FM to anyone seeking reliable, high-quality cleaning services, coupled with excellent communication and swift, effective action.”
