SlackThe problem it solves
Commercial cleaning operators lose hours hand-writing a fresh proposal for every bid request, often missing deadlines or copying inconsistent pricing under time pressure. This agent reads the incoming RFP, drafts a structured first-pass proposal from your past jobs and rate history, and flags anything missing so you review in minutes instead of writing from scratch.
Who it's for
- Commercial cleaning company owners who bid on office, retail, and medical contracts
- Janitorial service operators responding to RFPs and tenders
- Owner-operators without a dedicated sales or proposal writer
- Small cleaning teams that win work through competitive bidding
- Facility services firms standardizing their proposal process
What it does
- 1
Parse the inbound bid
It accepts RFPs from email, web forms, or direct messages and extracts facility type, square footage, service frequency, special requirements, and the bid deadline.
- 2
Match to past proposals
It pulls the two or three most comparable past jobs from your connected storage to surface relevant scope sections, pricing precedents, and client references.
- 3
Draft the first-pass proposal
It produces a structured cleaning proposal with an executive summary, scope of work, line-item pricing table, company overview, references, and terms.
- 4
Flag what's missing
It appends a missing-info checklist for any scope or pricing detail it couldn't fill from your data, so you resolve gaps before sending rather than guessing.
- 5
Wait for your review
It never finalizes or sends a proposal without your explicit approval, and it highlights any bid due within 48 hours.
- 6
Log and track the bid
It records each bid in your job tracker with prospect, facility type, estimated value, and status of drafted, submitted, won, or lost.
- 7
Set follow-up reminders
It schedules a check-in at your configured interval after submission and updates status as you close the deal.
- 8
Send a weekly win-rate digest
It summarizes bids submitted, win rate, average bid value, total pipeline, and bids approaching their follow-up window.
Key benefits
- Cut proposal turnaround from hours to minutes per bid request
- Win more work by responding to RFPs before competitors finish writing
- Keep pricing consistent by drawing on your real rate history
- Never send an incomplete bid thanks to the missing-info checklist
- See your full pipeline and win rate without manual spreadsheet upkeep
- Sound like your business, not a generic cleaning proposal template
Sample use cases
A 20,000 sq ft office building posts an RFP for 3x-weekly cleaning with a bid due in 5 days.
The agent drafts a full commercial cleaning proposal from comparable past office jobs, flags that COI limits aren't specified, and logs the bid with a deadline alert.
A medical clinic requests a quote that includes high-touch disinfection and restroom supply restocking.
It pulls scope language from similar healthcare jobs, builds a line-item pricing table, and notes that disinfection frequency needs owner confirmation.
Three bids submitted last week are nearing their follow-up window.
The weekly digest surfaces them alongside win rate and pipeline value so the owner knows exactly who to call before the contract lapses.
A retail chain sends a vague bid request with no square footage or frequency.
Rather than guess, the agent drafts what it can and returns a clear missing-info checklist so the owner gathers details before responding.

Every commercial cleaning bid arrives with its own square footage, service frequency, and special requirements, and the operators who win consistently are usually the ones who respond fastest with the most professional cleaning services proposal. This agent compresses the writing work so a small team can compete with firms that have a dedicated sales staff.
Because it tracks each bid through drafted, submitted, won, and lost, you also get a running picture of your pipeline and win rate, the part of bidding most owner-operators never have time to measure.
Getting started

- Run the onboarding skill — The agent-onboarding skill interviews you about your business, pricing model, and connected storage, then configures the agent for your operation.

Frequently asked questions
Will the agent send a cleaning proposal without my approval?
No. It only drafts a first-pass proposal and waits for your explicit review. It never sends or finalizes anything, and it flags any bid due within 48 hours so you can prioritize.
Which systems does the cleaning proposal agent work with?
It logs bids in Swept or Janitorial Manager, pulls past work from Google Drive or Dropbox, takes RFPs in by email, and posts pipeline alerts and the weekly digest to Slack.
How is this different from filling out a cleaning proposal template by hand?
A static commercial cleaning proposal template still leaves you writing scope and pricing from scratch each time. This agent reads the actual RFP, drafts from your past jobs and real rate history, and flags what's missing so each proposal is tailored, not generic.
Where does the pricing in the proposal come from?
It draws on your configured rate model and pricing precedents from comparable past jobs in your proposal library. It never fabricates pricing, and it lists any rate it cannot confidently fill in the missing-info checklist.
Can it handle different facility types like offices, medical, and retail?
Yes. It extracts the facility type from each bid and matches it to the most comparable past cleaning proposals, so scope language for an office, clinic, school, or retail space reflects similar jobs you've done.
How much does it cost to use?
The template is free to import into Gamut. You only need accounts with the cleaning and storage tools you already use, such as Swept, Janitorial Manager, Google Drive, or Dropbox.
