Jancoa is proud to announce our recertification for the CIMS-GB (Cleaning Industry Management Standard – Green Building) with Honors. This prestigious credential reflects our commitment to operational excellence, sustainability, and customer-focused service.
We are extremely proud to be the only company in Cincinnati to hold this internationally recognized distinction. Our team is also honored to have earned a “with Honors” distinction, which is the highest level of certification awarded by ISSA, the Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association.

About The CIMS-GB Certification

To become certified, an ISSA-accredited third-party assessor completes an on-site evaluation. This covers a variety of sections including: quality systems, service delivery, human resources, safety & environmental stewardship, and management commitment.
CIMS-GB goes beyond the regular CIMS certification, analyzing the organization’s sustainability practices and green-cleaning programs. The “with Honors” designation indicates an organization scored 100% of the mandatory elements and at least 85% of the additional recommended elements, recognizing superior performance and outstanding processes for cleaning operations.

Why This Matters For Our Clients

For our clients, choosing Jancoa means partnering with a company that has demonstrated the highest level of service and a commitment to excellence. You have assurance that our systems for safety, consistency, and accountability are proven against a global standard, meaning each of our facilities are cared for with precision and professionalism.
Beyond a safe and clean environment, working with a CIMS-GB with Honors janitorial service supports risk reduction and compliance readiness for our clients. Our established processes make audits simple, reduce risk, and ensure consistency, giving property and facility managers confidence as they are vetted and verified by an external assessor through this credential. Simply put, our values align with yours: safer workplaces, consistent results, and responsible operations that support long-term success.
Our green-cleaning practices can also help contribute toward your goals like achieving points for a LEED certification. The LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), developed by the U.S. Green Building Council, is the world’s most widely recognized green building standard. Our certified processes are designed with the LEED rating system in mind, helping you create healthier, efficient spaces while advancing your sustainability goals.
