ProSource Mission Critical Services - Franchise

ProSource Mission Critical Services Franchise Information:
The right choice for mission critical cleaning.

ProSource Overview
ProSource Mission Critical Services is a newly created franchise system. The franchise is designed to meet the technical cleaning needs of the mission critical data center industry. Since data centers demand professional and specialized service providers in their critical facilities, ProSource has designed a patent pending cleaning system to provide preventive maintenance cleaning services to meet this demand. As a ProSource franchisee, you will have the opportunity to be a part of this growing specialized industry.

ProSource is one of the leading data center cleaning companies in the industry. Since 1994, ProSource has developed a patent pending system for cleaning data center environments.

So why is our business model so effective?
First, we have developed a strong reputation in the industry as a quality service provider. In addition we have developed a patent-pending cleaning system to provide an effective preventive maintenance program. Secondly, there are very high barriers to entry into the industry due to the fact that customers rely on service providers that have a proven track record. In addition, our customers demand vendors that they can trust to clean their mission critical facilities with the right equipment, procedures, and technicians.

Currently, the industry is marked by local and regional companies in a fragmented market with no national leader that is able to provide consistent quality, coverage, and pricing across the entire country. Next, we believe that through franchising in the largest markets in the country we will provide competitive local coverage, consistent quality, and emerge as the leader in the ability to offer national contracts thereby locking out other competitors. In addition, leveraging the power of a branded national company will increase the opportunities for more local and regional service agreements.

These factors, coupled with dedicated and experienced local business owners, we believe are a formula for long-term success.

Data Center Industry Overview
As downtime continues to be a focus among mission critical facility managers, ProSource provides a preventive maintenance solution to on-going contamination control problems in the data center. Professional data center managers strive to engage qualified companies to perform maintenance in their critical facilities. As a result, specialty cleaning vendors have always demanded a higher premium to provide this level of trust through qualified equipment, supplies, procedures, and trained technicians. ProSource is meeting these demands in this high-growth cleaning market.

As the need for data processing grows, so does our market. Potential customers include the following industries: banking, insurance, aerospace, accounting, legal, manufacturing, federal government, state government, education, healthcare, distribution, retail, brokerage, information technology, property management, as well as any organization that has a need to provide information to its customers or employees. CB Richard Ellis, the worlds largest provider of critical facility management services, predicts that the demand for data center space is so strong that it suggests another data center build-out boom as in the late 1990s (source: CB Richard Ellis Market View Newsletter, December 2006).

Training
ProSource provides initial operations and sales training for new franchisees. Franchisees will also receive on-going field and technical support, as well as sales and marketing support. In order to keep our services at the highest quality possible we will provide continual training on any improvements of our maintenance processes as new technology emerges.

Each franchisee will be assigned a regional business development manager to assist you in your territory through local and national marketing programs. Also, ProSource utilizes an award winning on-demand web based CRM system to help local franchisees develop and close more opportunities with greater insight into your pipeline.
