What a new building does not tell you in advance
Where people actually walk. Which entrance they use. Which amenity gets three times the traffic of the others. Where deliveries really arrive. Which floor surface holds soil and which sheds it. None of that is knowable from a plan or a walkthrough of an empty building, and all of it determines where the cleaning effort should go once the building is occupied. A plan shows intent; occupancy shows behaviour, and only one of them determines the cleaning.
The first quarter is therefore partly an information-gathering exercise. Frequent supervisor visits are not primarily about checking the crew; they are about seeing how the building behaves under real use. A visit at four in the afternoon in week three will show you more about where the effort belongs than any amount of planning did before the doors opened. Learning the building is as much a part of those visits as checking the crew.
