How cost-plus pricing works

Cost-plus pricing starts with your actual costs - labor hours based on industry benchmarks for the facility type and size, plus supply costs - then adds your target profit margin on top. This ensures every job is profitable regardless of what competitors charge.

The market range shown above comes from ISSA Cleaning Industry Management Standard (CIMS) benchmarks for your facility type and square footage. Your price can be anywhere - below market for competitive bids, or premium for specialized services.

Labor benchmarks adjust by facility type: medical facilities require more time per square foot than standard offices due to specialized disinfection protocols. This calculator accounts for those differences automatically.
