Today, a large number of hospitals are looking at outsourcing their housekeeping requirements – fully or partially. But, more clarity is needed as to which are the areas that need to be outsourced and how the outsourced services can be managed to meet the required cleanliness & hygiene standards. A panel consisting of six experts both from the healthcare end and the cleaning industry discussed this pertinent issue across a round table during the Clean India Pulire 2011. Excerpts:
Till swine flu panic gripped the world, washing hands was considered to be the best way to maintain personal hygiene and protect oneself from diseases.

Any equipment manufacturer/supplier would prefer to supply his machines in the simplest way, i.e., directly to the end user company. The profit margin is more, the payment is safe and servicing of the equipment is easier, as there is less mishandling by the operators. On the other hand, when selling to the service providers, the payment can be delayed and there can be equipment breakdowns because of handling by unskilled workers. However, selling to service providers makes more business sense as the market is wider and many equipment suppliers do prefer this route. Therefore, the question here is how an equipment supplier can manage to continue supplying machines to service providers and yet get the payment on time.

In India, the going is rougher, as the very proposal to introduce better practices using eco-products or systems is directly associated with costs and thus evaded by both the client and the service provider. Mohana M discusses the topic with leading housekeeping and facility service providers to assess the challenges & solutions
