 The cost of cleaning can be divided into a number of well-recognised elements and although the proportion allocated to each element can vary from contract to contract, it is possible to give some guidance on a typical breakdown as shown in the following:
There are many reasons why there are acceptable variations to the above, depending for example, upon whether there are special requirements that need to be taken into account. Typically, cleaning costs are categorised as Direct or Indirect, and Fixed or Variable. Direct Costs Are those that relate directly to the contract and will include:
Indirect Costs Are not specific to the individual contract and are usually apportioned across the business, there include:
Fixed Costs These remain the same throughout the contract such as site-based office costs and equipment depreciation. Variable Costs These will change throughout the contact – for example, the consumables and materials spend can change from month to month. Will TUPE affect the cost of your cleaning?
