How can DCS Global help us make our facilities safer?
At DCS Global, we believe knowledge is power. We all know the way to prevent infection spread is practicing effective cleaning and disinfection practices. In commercial cleaning, we call them the three Ps: protocols, procedures, and products. We make certain your team or third-party contractors are taking the best steps, consistently, and with the best frequency. From needs assessments to ongoing monitoring, we provide exactly the support you need.
How do I show my employees and customers that we continue to provide a clean, healthy environment?
Three effective ways you can demonstrate ongoing duty of care are: audits with testing; a range of independent, professional certifications like GBAC Star and LEED, and communication of your ongoing commitment to stakeholders. DCS Global can assist you with all three. Whether you need an integrated plan or support in a specific area, we are here to help you maintain and demonstrate a clean healthy environment with all the independent proof you need.
Can DCS Global help us with our compliance concerns?
Our independent consultancy and professional auditors will help ensure your facility meets or exceeds CDC, EPA, OSHA and other agency and government regulations and guidelines. Working with DCS Global lowers your risk of non-compliance impacts, accidents, and lawsuits. We are also experts in the environmental component of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance). DCS Global can provide data to support your organization’s commitment to sustainability.
What exactly is ATP testing and how is it useful?
ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate is a molecule that only exists in living or once-living cells. By measuring ATP’s bioluminescence, we can quickly measure the amount of biological matter in a specific area and scientifically determine the effectiveness of cleaning. ATP testing can discover where bacteria and mold are growing before there is any evidence that is visible to the human eye or a visual audit.
The inspector conducting the ATP monitoring will swab the appropriate surfaces at your facility and insert the samples into a unit known as a luminometer. This light-measuring device provides rapid, easily comparable results.
Why is ATP testing an important part of cleanliness?
As the world continues to recover from the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, companies need evolving plans and an arsenal of tools to ensure their premises and employees remain safe from viruses. Hygiene audits with ATP testing are one method DCS Global advisors and auditors use to provide accurate, valuable data. That science-based information allows facilities to actively monitor cleaning standards, educate their custodial team, and foster user confidence.
