For those of you wondering where your department ranks among fellow CM/Cleaning & Maintenance Management^ฎ magazine readers, we present the 2007 In-house Facility Industry Leaders Review.

JanSan pros from around North America answered surveys to compete for a top spot on our cleaning rankings. In the following pages, learn which facilities:

• Clean the most square feet
• Employ the most people
• Service the most number of buildings
• Care for the most restrooms
• Maintain the largest single area.

We based these elite listings on responses from CM/Cleaning & Maintenance Management^ฎ magazine and CM e-News Daily™ readers.

If you think your department should make next year’s cut, or have any questions about the results, please contact Senior Editor Rich DiPaolo at (516) 404-4532 or rdipaolo@ntpmedia.com.
