NFC Tags for Commercial Cleaning Services
What are NFC Tags?
An NFC tag is a small programmable tag that can be scanned with an NFC scanner (such as a smart phone) to display and/or share information. NFC tags are discreet and can come in various forms such as a sticker, ID badges, wristbands, and more. If you’ve ever used contactless payment systems, that is a form of NFC technology. In the commercial cleaning industry, NFC sticker tags, cards, and screw-on tags are the most common types used.
How Do NFC Tags Work?
Using NFC Tags is simple. These small tags can be placed throughout facilities and scanned with the tap of a smart device. This allows cleaning teams to work more efficiently because core tasks like timekeeping, accessing cleaning checklists, and performing inspections are streamlined.
NFC Tag Functions to Speed Up Your Cleaning Operations
Clock In & Out
NFC Tags can be placed where clocking in and out needs to occur. Then, using the JM Connect mobile app, cleaners can clock in & out with the tap of their smart device. For an added layer of security, this timekeeping functionality can be combined with geofencing and facial recognition to prevent early clock ins and buddy punching.
Access Cleaning Checklists
Tap to view digital cleaning checklists within the JM Connect mobile app. We call it Scan4Clean! These customizable checklists allow cleaners to mark off each task as they go. With this feature, you don’t have to rely on pen-and-paper checklists, which can be misplaced. Cleaners can also snap before/after pictures for documented proof of the services performed.
Preform Quality Checks
Managers can use the mobile app to inspect and grade their cleaners work with a single tap of their smartphone’s NFC reader. We call this Scan2Inspect! The rating scale of quality checks can be customized to their preferences, too. Attach pictures to the report and send them off to cleaners (for praise or coaching), key stakeholders, or clients on demand.
