In busy, high-traffic restrooms, it’s hard to stay on top of maintenance issues. Traditional schedule-based cleaning routines and guesswork just won’t do. They can’t address unexpected servicing needs or predict where you need to be when.

Fortunately, there’s a better way. Smart Building Management Systems (BMS), used for everything from HVAC management to lighting control, are increasingly being utilized to enhance the restroom experience – ensuring that they are always well-stocked and clean.

This has led to a revolution in restroom management, with more high traffic venues deploying smart technology to improve cleanliness and hygiene for guests while driving performance improvements throughout an entire venue.

Here are some of the benefits that a smart restroom solution can deliver to your facility:

1. Banishes “blind spots”

In large venues, it’s impossible to keep track of restroom conditions everywhere all at once. Without continuous monitoring to quickly address emerging issues, concerns are often addressed far too late. This lack of visibility can quickly lead to unsanitary conditions, chaotic cleaning schedules, unnecessary waste, and guest and visitor dissatisfaction – making your job harder.  

Smart restroom technology lets you see the full picture via intelligent insights and connected technology. This enables you to track everything from foot traffic to product usage in real time, so you can better anticipate when and where problems may arise.

2. Empowers your facility management team

With access to facility performance data through a mobile app, your cleaning teams can make informed decisions about which restrooms to service and when. Using up-to-the-minute data on restroom usage and conditions, you can implement flexible cleaning schedules that respond to actual visitor needs.

The result? Greater peace of mind for you and your teams. And, by streamlining tasks, you can ease the burden on janitorial staff to provide a less stressful, more rewarding work environment.

3. Enables data-based planning

With data and insights just a few clicks away, you can increase staff efficiency by deploying cleaners to areas most in need, boosting your bottom line through reduced operating expenses.

For venue managers facing labor shortages, optimizing resources is crucial. Restroom traffic varies throughout the day, making time-based cleaning both inefficient and labor-intensive. A smart restroom solution like Onvation^® provides real-time insights into foot traffic patterns, enabling you to more accurately anticipate restroom needs. This data-driven, predictive approach ensures cleaning teams are deployed only when necessary, allowing you to shift from reactive to proactive restroom maintenance.

4. Optimizes visitor and guest satisfaction

Visitors to your facility expect minimal disruptions and that includes the restroom. Prioritizing restroom management through smart restroom technology demonstrates your commitment to cleanliness and patron well-being.

Keeping guests happy is your overarching goal, so why not choose a system that allows you to better manage venue operations to ensure a quality experience day-in and day-out?

5. Futureproofs your operations

As facility management requirements become more stringent and guest and vendor expectations rise, you need to stay as far ahead of the curve as possible.

Seamless, behind-the-scenes restroom servicing technology can help you deliver a consistent, hygienic experience to all. In an ever-changing world, it’s one important way to help ensure your venue is prepared to address whatever the future may hold.
