The Gold Standard for Clean, Consistent, and Hygienic Operations
The Cleaning Industry Management Standard (CIMS) is the leading standard and certification for cleaning organizations that prioritize excellence in service, efficiency, and customer satisfaction.
Built on universally recognized best practices, CIMS helps your organization demonstrate professionalism, improve operational performance, and stand out in a competitive market place. This program is based on the successful CIMS criteria, which outlines the primary characteristics of a successful, quality cleaning organization, plus a renewed emphasis on maintaining hygienic environments.

Testimonials
“One of the biggest benefits for us was the development of our team. Each of us working on the project learned so much about areas of the business we are not exposed to regularly. We learned how companies much larger than ours navigate the same issues and what we could adopt into our operations. It helped us to identify new objectives for the future and gave us a clear road map to get there.”
“These certifications show customers that we stand by our work and we take pride in what we do,” added Bonaparte. “The processes and procedures our staff learned have truly set us up for continued success.”
“The rigorous evaluation and tools made available are a good combination to be successful. It is not a simple or easy certification to accomplish thus it is meaningful.”
“It quick ly became apparent that CIMS is a standout certification program. It was a great fit because we’re in the janitorial industry and this certification is industry-specific and built by professionals who have extensive cleaning experience and knowledge.”
