FM pioneers
18 April 2016
TC Facilities Management (TCFM), which next year will see its 55th year in business, has based its success on being pioneers in the field of many things in FM, including its approach to contract cleaning.

It’s proud that its approach is visible across its customers including the use of technology to record and monitor the safety of floor areas in-store along with using the same technology to monitor the management of spillages. This helps to maximise safety of stores for customers as well as ensuring an easy full audit trail is available.
In addition, creating partnerships with equipment providers has seen TCFM’s housekeepers and cleaning operatives benefit from innovative equipment used to clean glass cabinets showcasing some of The Beatles’ memorabilia to the thousands of visitors each day, at The Beatles Story in Liverpool.
Other work which brings together a mix of a pioneering spirit and effective emotional intelligence is visible in Distribution Centres across the country where cleaning services have been extended from delivering pure cleaning to now providing a variety of added value services which help clients operate more effectively and brand promise, for example de-kit and stock accuracy services.
More specialist cleaning contracts involve both office and manufacturing spaces at the one site. Here TCFM have demonstrated a capability to deliver both commercial cleaning in the office suite along with technical cleaning in laboratories and production facilities.
But it’s not all about how the job gets done but also motivating staff to be all they can be. It is here where the recently introduced apprenticeship programme comes to the fore, providing staff with opportunities to extend their skills and knowledge with on the ground training and customers with the peace of mind that staff at all levels are encouraged to be the very best they can be.
A number of case studies about the variety of both contract cleaning and the broader range of services including TC Security Services, TC Specialist Services and integrated FM available from TCFM can be requested from www.tcfm.co.uk.
TC Facilities Management is one of the Top 2% of cleaning contractors in the UK (Plimsoll report, 2015) being ranked at number 14 out of over 750 suppliers in the UK by turnover.
