Session 1 | Digital Marketing in the BSC Era: Beyond SEO and Social Media 

Speaker: Matt Christou, Co-Founder, Big League Clean

Digital marketing is about more than just social media; it’s a way to actually bring in more money. This session moves past the basics to show how automation and analytics help you build faster, better RFP responses so you can win more of the work you want.

Product Feature | Reclaiming Lost Margin: Identity-Verified Timekeeping for Building  

Speaker: Stephanie Petersen, Product Manager, TEAM Software by WorkWave  TEAM Software

Tracking time across a distributed workforce has long run on the honor system. However, punch photos, kiosks, and biometric AI validation are turning "trust me" into "here's the proof." This shift is critical, as an average of 2–4% of payroll is lost to "buddy punching" when accountability slips.

This session shows how building service contractors verify who's actually on-site using GPS-linked punch photos that build a visual audit trail, optional biometric matching that confirms identity in seconds, and shared kiosks that collect punches quickly during a shift-change rush.

Just as important, every verified punch feeds cleaner labor data straight into your job costing, so padded hours and shared logins stop eroding contract margins. We'll cover real workflows, privacy, and how biometric validation earns its keep in comparison to punch photo technology—so you leave with a practical framework for protecting accountability and your bottom line.

Session 2 | Generative AI in the BSC Industry: The Practical Skills Your Team Can Use Today  

Speaker: Ceris Burns, FCIM C.Env. Cln. Chartered Marketer, Founder, CBAi

Most BSC leaders know AI is on the agenda. Far fewer know where to actually start or what generative AI can do for their business right now, without a tech budget or an IT project.This session cuts through the hype. Ceris Burns, CPD-accredited AI trainer and specialist in cleaning and FM, shares what's working in the sector today: how to prompt AI tools effectively, where generative AI delivers fast, measurable return across operational and back-office functions, and what you need in place before you scale.

You'll leave with a framework you can use the same day and a clear picture of what the next 90 days should look like for your organization.

Session 3 | Easy Wins in Cybersecurity: Practical Protections for BSC Operations  

Speaker: Jeff Durand, Director of IT, Vonachen Group

Cybersecurity doesn’t have to be complex or costly. This session highlights practical, high-impact cybersecurity best practices that BSCs can implement quickly to reduce risk, protect client data, and strengthen trust without slowing down operations.

Session 4 | Efficient Technology: Managing the BSC Tech Stack Without Complexity

Speaker: Joseph Pizzimenti, CEO, CClean Commercial Cleaning

As your business grows, so does the number of software tools your team relies on. The challenge is making sure those systems work together, get used consistently, and provide real benefits. This session will help you strengthen team adoption and turn everyday data into reporting that supports smarter decisions, business intelligence, and growth.
