Commercial cleaning companies operate under tighter accountability than residential services. Facility managers expect documented proof that every area was covered on every shift, detailed supply usage that ties to their contract budget, and consistent crew coverage even when a regular team member calls out. Managing all of that across multiple locations with different scope-of-work requirements for each client is where operations get complicated without the right infrastructure.
IRONGRID is commercial cleaning software and janitorial software built for multi-location cleaning operations. Use it as your commercial cleaning management software to assign crews, build area-by-area checklists, and track shift completion across every facility you service, and as your billing platform to invoice each account accurately based on actual services performed. The commercial cleaning company app works on any device so crew supervisors can manage their shift from the facility floor without paper logs.
Built for the way commercial cleaning businesses work
Every tool you need to run your jobs from first call to final payment.
Multi-Location Work Orders
Create work orders for each commercial property and location you service. Track jobs across office buildings, retail spaces, medical facilities, and more, all from one dashboard.
Crew Scheduling Across Sites
Schedule cleaning crews across multiple locations and shifts. Assign the right team to each facility and track status throughout the night or day.

Supplies & Materials Tracking
Log cleaning products, paper goods, and equipment used at each location. Track supply costs per account so your contracts are priced to cover your real costs.

On Pro and Business plans, push invoices from IRONGRID to QuickBooks in one click. Clients are created as QuickBooks Customers automatically. No double-entry between your account billing and accounting.
How commercial cleaning companies use IRONGRID
A medical office building with three floors needs nightly cleaning Sunday through Thursday. You set up the account in IRONGRID with a separate work order for each shift, a detailed checklist covering every area of each floor (waiting rooms, exam rooms, restrooms, break areas, hallways), and the two-person crew assigned to the account. The work orders repeat automatically each week so no one is manually recreating the same schedule every Monday.
Each night, the crew supervisor opens IRONGRID on their phone and works through the checklist floor by floor, marking each area complete as the crew finishes it. They log the cleaning products and paper goods used on that shift. When the final area is checked off, the shift is marked complete. The facility manager can see the completed checklist if they ask; the office has a documented record of every shift and every supply used for accurate contract billing.
For commercial cleaning companies with multiple clients at different billing frequencies (some monthly, some per-shift), IRONGRID handles each account according to its own schedule. Monthly accounts get a recurring work order set once; per-shift clients get invoiced after each completed service. Supply costs logged per shift make it straightforward to verify that your contracts are priced to cover real expenses as supply costs change over time.
