When the COVID-19 pandemic began and states put stay-at-home orders in place, both essential and non-essential businesses faced the same question: “When will my facility be able to return to business as usual?”

No one could have predicted just how long we’d wait for that answer, but the time has finally come for several states to consider reopening or return their operation to some semblance of normal. It may feel exciting at first, but with that decision comes a lot of other questions such as “Am I ready? How can I protect people in my facility – now and in the future?”

As You Get Back to Business, There Are New Standards to Consider

Cleaning and disinfectant processes have taken on an entirely different meaning these days because of COVID-19, but you shouldn’t be left alone to try and figure out how they’ve changed or what that means.

“Over the past 33 years, we have seen many changes and innovation happening in equipment, chemicals, and cleaning strategies,” said Joe Choplin, Director of Operations at City Wide Maintenance in Kansas City. “But in the last 75-90 days, there’s been a rapid advancement on becoming better at properly disinfecting.”

Choplin goes on to suggest that every facility needs to have a plan in place – whether you’re reopening your doors, or your facility has remained open during the pandemic. “We can help people understand what that ‘new normal’ looks like these days.”
