About

Client Success

The most valuable testament to our success is the satisfaction of our client partners. We work tirelessly to ensure every single client is happy and feels heard and cared for. Here we’ve shared some testimonials from just a small handful of our satisfied clients.

I strongly advocate outsourcing custodial services. It helped save us significant dollars and eliminated all personnel headaches in that department. The end result is cleaner buildings for our students and teachers. That's what we're after.

I think the key is finding a company where there is a true partnership - a company that shares the same vision as the district. ... Nobody looks at SSC as an outsourcing company, they just look at the employees as part of the district ... When visitors come to the district, they're blown away by how our buildings look and how they operate.

The reason that the partnership between SSC and Thunderbird works so well is because we think of each other as a team. I also believe that the SSC staff working on our campus take great pride in their work, and that shows. It matters to them how the campus functions, how it looks, their level of customer service, and the fact that the community feels safe. They truly add value daily.

We've had a great relationship with SSC, both personally and professionally. They've been very supportive of the district. It's a positive two-way relationship.

(SSC is) a partner in public education ... Any money that we save goes directly into teaching and learning. The bottom line is that it all goes to help the district accomplish its one goal—which is student achievement and making sure that students are ready for the 21st century.

The bottomline is you form these relationships and trust, and they become just like employees of the district.

Our Team

Not all heroes wear capes – ours wield mops, drive lawnmowers, keep HVACs running smoothly, and know our partners’ facilities like the back of their white-gloved hands.

Unfortunately for our competitors, our team is hands-down the best in the industry. It quite simply can’t be beat and is one of the major keys to our success. Their dedicated, tireless efforts and expertise allows us to offer a level of customer support that is unmatched. Many of our employees, including several of our key leaders, have a long tenure with SSC. These leaders provide our company and our customers with an unparalleled level of experience.
