Outdated processes cost you time, money, and your building’s health.
For decades, the facility services industry has been slow to evolve. Too many vendors rely on outdated cleaning methods, inefficient equipment, and labor-heavy processes that drain resources and diminish results. Facility managers pay the price in higher costs, wasted time, and unhealthy environments.
“The way it’s always been done” is no longer good enough.
And the numbers back it up:
- Nearly 60% of facility managers’ report having no innovation strategy in place, leaving buildings vulnerable to wasted resources, higher risks, and lower performance.
- The global facility management market is projected to grow from $1.75 trillion in 2024 to $2.33 trillion by 2033. In a market this large, even small inefficiencies quickly scale into massive costs.
- Facilities that implement IoT and smart systems cut costs by up to 30% compared to those relying on manual, outdated processes.
Why Innovation Matters in Facility Management
When cleaning partners fail to innovate, facilities feel the impact in more ways than one:
- Cleaning for Health, Not Just Looks
leaving buildings vulnerable to wasted resources, higher risks, and lower performance. - Wasted Resources
Inefficient chemical usage, outdated equipment, wasted water, and disorganized supply systems inflate costs. - Reduced Productivity
Without structured systems or modern equipment, teams spend more time achieving less. - Hidden Risks
Gaps in process and training lead to inconsistent outcomes that compromise compliance, health, and safety.
Innovation isn’t optional—it’s essential for facilities that want measurable value, safer environments, and long-term performance.
How Pegasus Solves the Innovation Gap
At Pegasus, we don’t just keep pace with the industry—we set the standard for what’s next. Our model combines science, technology, and proven systems to reshape how facilities are cleaned and maintained.
Here’s how we do it:
- (OS1)™ Cleaning Operating System
Our proprietary framework replaces outdated “zone cleaning” with a structured, team-based model. By standardizing roles, responsibilities, and workflows, (OS1)™ reduces inefficiency, eliminates redundancies, and ensures every detail is covered, every shift and every building. - Smarter Use of Technology
Through PegDesk, our IoT-enabled platform, facility managers gain real-time visibility into cleaning activity, supply usage, and performance metrics. Data turns into insight, making cleaning measurable and manageable. - Sustainable Practices
Pegasus leads with environmentally responsible methods—pre-measured chemicals, reusable containers, and water-saving processes—that reduce waste and lower costs while improving results. - Continuous Improvement
Innovation isn’t a one-time event. Pegasus invests in ongoing training, new equipment, and forward-looking strategies that keep our teams sharp and our customers ahead of the curve.
Shaping the Future of Clean
Every facility manager knows the frustration of vendors who resist change. Pegasus takes the opposite approach—embedding innovation into every process and every shift, delivering cleaner, safer environments and measurable value you can see across your facility.
Our experts build a custom facility blueprint that reveals where to start, what to staff, and how to optimize your operations for measurable results.
