The assessment considers use of core systems, how far processes are digitalised, integrations, data readiness and advanced use of data.

A 3 means ordinary, middling maturity. A 5 is given only where real-time data, automated decisions and advanced optimisation are already a routine part of core operations.

Operating model

Cleaning crews, security posts and other service teams perform different tasks at the same facility. The customer is interested in the agreed quality of service and timely resolution of defects.

Cleaning and site maintenance

The work is planned according to zones, surfaces and agreed frequency. The manual checks the quality of performance, and defects are transferred to the responsible brigade for elimination.

Physical security and standby

It is important for the security service to ensure the necessary number of employees in posts, to communicate information in a timely manner, and to respond according to the mandate given.

Multiple contractual object services

The same facility can handle cleaning, security and other teams. Each receives its own schedule, instructions and order of registration of works.

One-time specialized work of the object

The team performs a specific volume order, such as post-construction cleaning. Pre-arranged preparation, work result and conditions for its reception.

Market context

The object servicing company combines the agreed scope of service, staff schedules and customer notifications. Evidence for cleaning, safety and other services is different. The customer needs to see if the agreed works have been done and how the problem has been solved, and the provider needs to ensure a feasible and profitable contract.

  • Employee AllocationIn the absence of a person, it is necessary to quickly find a suitable deputy and pass instructions for a specific object.
  • Quality checkThe client and coordinator need to see not only the presence in the facility, but also the result of the agreed works.

Workflow and responsibilities

Digital maturity scale

1

Separate records and manual work

Information is mainly held in separate files or notes. Employees pass it on and reconcile it manually.

2

Organised data within individual teams Typical current situation

Teams record their work consistently, but sharing information with colleagues still requires considerable manual checking.

3

Partially integrated systems

Core work is managed in systems. Some information is transferred automatically, but repeated data entry remains.

4

Coordinated systems and teams

Systems deliver the required data on time. Employees can see unfinished work and know who is responsible for resolving discrepancies.

5

Continuous measurement and improvement

The team checks data quality, evaluates results and uses them to improve operations. Automation is applied where its value can be demonstrated.

Executive conclusion

Employees must receive clear tasks and the necessary tools. The manager checks the result, and urgent incidents are transmitted directly according to the established response procedures.
