Cleaning
Certification

There is no certification for computer room cleaning companies. While many have suggested this as a good idea, there has been no groundswell of support from either the customer base or the supplier base.

Vendor provided references may be comforting but what vendor will offer a reference that is less than positive. One option is to request a reference from the last serviced client, e.g. yesterday. This random selection may be a more unbiased opinion than a reference selected exclusively by the vendor.
