Whittaker for Building Service Contractors
BSCs running the Smart Care® TRIO system clean more square footage per shift, bid more competitively, and take on accounts other contractors cannot service. Here is how the program works for your business.
Most BSC carpet programs are built around extraction. That means high labor cost per square foot, long dry times that limit when you can clean, and accounts you simply cannot bid because your process requires more time than the facility allows. Adding interim encapsulation to your program changes all three.

The math works in your favor.
Traditional extraction averages 800-900 sq. ft. per hour. The Smart Care® TRIO starts at 9,000 sq. ft. per hour. That gap is not incremental. It significantly changes what your crew can cover in a shift, what you can bid per square foot, and how many accounts you can service with the same team. Carpets dry in 30-60 minutes, which means cleaning happens during the day without taking spaces out of service. That is a differentiator when facilities are comparing bids.
