Mobilisation and supervision

From site review to reporting and improvement

  1. 01

    Site and requirement review

    Walk the site, confirm areas, access, frequencies and the standard expected.

  2. 02

    Service plan

    A written specification covering tasks, schedules, equipment and consumables.

  3. 03

    Staffing and resource planning

    Labour profile, supervision ratio and cover arrangements agreed before day one.

  4. 04

    Mobilisation

    Teams inducted, equipment on site and the service live to the agreed date.

  5. 05

    Supervision

    On-site supervisors own daily allocation, attendance and standards.

  6. 06

    Quality checks

    Structured audits against the specification with recorded outcomes.

  7. 07

    Reporting and improvement

    Regular reporting, review meetings and agreed corrective actions.

Quality assurance

Quality held in place by standards, checks and communication

Procurement and estates teams need evidence, not assurances. Our quality framework is documented and reviewable.

  • Client communication

    Proactive updates on cover, incidents and changes — no surprises.

  • Performance reviews

  • Continuous improvement

    Findings fed back into the plan so the baseline standard keeps rising.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What does your facilities management cover?

Commercial cleaning, housekeeping, deep cleaning, periodic works, student accommodation room readiness, and wider soft facilities and operational support.

Do you support student accommodation turnarounds?

Yes. We plan and resource room readiness programmes around peak turnaround windows, with supervision and sign-off against agreed room standards.

Who supervises the team on site?

Each contract has named supervision and a single point of contact, so standards are checked in person rather than assumed from a rota.

Can you scale up for peaks?

Yes. Additional resource can be brought in for peak periods, projects and one-off deep cleans without changing your point of contact.

Project highlight

Student accommodation room-readiness programme

Challenge

An accommodation provider needed several hundred rooms and all communal areas cleaned, checked and released across a compressed summer window, with arrivals weekend fixed and no room for slippage.

Approach

Recruitta reviewed the buildings block by block, built a room-by-room service plan, resourced supervised housekeeping teams and mobilised equipment and consumables ahead of the first handover date.

Outcome

Blocks were signed off in the agreed sequence with daily progress reporting, supervisory sign-off per room and a single accountable contact throughout the programme.
