Outsourcing the facilities services in your company or organisation is like a burden falling off your shoulders. You have time for other things, while we take care of the facilities side. Do you have several branches spread across the country? Then of course you do not want to look for a different partner for each separate building. A facilities service provider like Multi Masters Group offers national coverage. And that comes with its advantages. Discover them in this article.
1. A facilities services provider with national coverage is flexible in expansion
Two of the biggest advantages of working with a facilities provider with national coverage are scalability and flexibility. As companies and organisations grow, facility needs naturally grow with them. Whether you have one location, or several locations spread across the country, a facilities services provider with national coverage can easily scale up or adapt the assignments to your changing needs. He knows the way of working, knows the right contacts within your organisation and knows perfectly what is needed to get off to the most efficient start with new location(s).
“We have branches from the seaside to the Ardennes. Our Ostend and Liège offices are more than 200 km apart and are all cleaned by Cleaning Masters.”
(Jan Michiels – Facility manager at Vivaldis Interim)
2. One single point of contact for all sites
Here we discuss ‘the big advantage of the big advantage’. A facilities services partner with national coverage can easily scale up the task, as cited in the previous paragraph, but can also offer the same central point of contact. This makes communication and coordination of all facility tasks once easier and more efficient. Instead of having to communicate to a different contact person for each location each time, a facilities service provider like Multi Masters Group offers one fixed point of contact (SPOC) for all your facilities questions. Quickly exchange information, ask questions, report problems, and make changes at any location, you immediately know who to contact.
“With one single point of contact and an internal inspection, Cleaning Masters ensures smooth cooperation.”

3. A facilities services provider with national coverage offers higher efficiency
Of course, as an organisation, the cost is not an insignificant factor. Working with the same partner at each location increases efficiency. And higher efficiency means higher returns, which brings the necessary cost savings. Moreover, you also don’t have to worry about hiring any additional partners or suppliers. Everything is streamlined and therefore cost-efficient.
“We wanted to centrally coordinate the fume hood cleaning, pest control and glass washing of the 120 residential care centres across Flanders and Wallonia. Multi Masters Group was the strongest candidate.”
(David De Mol – Purchase manager at Korian)
4. You can react quickly in case of absences
With a facilities services provider with national coverage, you can count on continuity of service. Suppose one of the employees is (unexpectedly) absent, due to illness, holidays or other reasons, a quick switch can be made, and a quick replacement can be sought in the national pool of qualified employees.
“We have 35 sites. I cannot always drive to every location to check if everything is properly cleaned. Cleaning Masters’ inspection system guarantees that cleaning is done properly.”
(Johan Gerits – Facility manager at APK Group)
5. Less paperwork, more time left
No more red tape. Working with the same partner across all locations means much easier administration. A partner like Multi Masters Group offers the advantage that your invoices are centralised in one place, but also that you do not have to keep in touch with different suppliers. Moreover, a facilities services provider with national coverage can often obtain more favourable rates from suppliers, due to their economies of scale and long-term cooperation.
“Every week, Cleaning Masters cleans over 260 Accent offices across Belgium. It is one of the few companies that can handle a job of this calibre.”
(Filip Van De Werf – Facility Advisor at Accent Jobs)
