Inventory before productivity
If the restroom count is wrong, the best rate book still yields a bad bid. Walk the site or confirm the room list. Cleaning takeoff is that inventory.
Frequencies are where spreadsheets lie
Monthly work multiplied by daily visits is the classic error. SweepTally keeps per-visit, weekly, monthly and quarterly lines separate. The guide shows person-minutes versus crew clock time.

Common questions
Does SweepTally include ISSA 612 rates?
No. Enter times you measured or licensed separately.
Is workloading only for commercial janitorial?
The same order of operations works for houses, apartments and warehouses. The inventory changes.
How do I start?
Time three tasks on one site, then enter them in the workbench.
