The GEN-X reduces labor costs related to floor care by eliminating the need for the one component that is shared by every other floor care machine on the market: a dedicated human operator.  Advanced robotics take over the task of navigating the scrubber throughout a building,  freeing the operator to take on other responsibilities.  Rather than face the tedium of walking behind or riding on a traditional scrubber shift after shift, the operator only has to launch and retrieve the GEN-X.  Once launched, the robot will methodically clean from room to room and up and down hallways.  The operator wears a special pager that the GEN-X will use to alert them of any situation that requires their attention.  At the end of a shift, the operator drains the robot and returns it to storage for recharging.  On average, an operator spends less that 30 minutes total per 8-hour shift tending to a floor care robot. 

Moving staff from behind floor scrubbers to higher-level tasks translates into a huge costs savings.  More areas can be cleaned in less time with fewer people. 

*  As a force multiplier, the GEN-X is perfect for cleaning contractors
   who operate in a narrow time window. 

*  As a dedicated floor care professional, the GEN-X is a blessing to EVS directors
   who struggle to keep quality floor techs ... often the hardest position to keep staffed. 

*  As a robot, the GEN-X can accurately clean over 10,000 square feet per hour,
   perfect for owners of large buildings who need to clean floor several days a week. 

A floor care robot is also fixed cost, and does not incur added expense over time as benefits, minimum wage, health insurance and other employee costs increase.  A GEN-X does not require overtime or holiday pay, does not take any state-mandated breaks, and does not require any facilities other than a storage closet, sink and electrical outlet.  With a GEN-X, you can know exactly what your operating costs will be for the life of the robot.

The GEN-X reduces costs in other unexpected ways as well.  Cleaning overnight or on weekends often increases costs for a building owner because they must provide lights, HVAC and security for the cleaning crew.  The GEN-X however can operate in total darkness, doesn't mind if the temperature drops below 72 degrees, and is no threat to security.  The GEN-X uses less water, and less cleaning solution than floor scrubbers that cannot recycle.
