Sciving Expands Operations with New Management and Cleaning Service

Sciving is excited to announce a major step toward ensuring long-term quality and reliability in the day-to-day experience of our residents. This month, Sciving officially began the development of its own internal branch dedicated to the management and cleaning of all Sciving housing units.
This initiative stems from a simple but important goal: to ensure that all Sciving homes meet the same high standard of cleanliness, maintenance, and overall management regardless of location. While many housing providers outsource these services, we believe that directly managing these responsibilities allows us to provide a better experience for students, reduce inefficiencies, and take more ownership over the environments we create.
From the very beginning, Sciving’s mission has been to provide sustainable, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed housing for students. With the addition of our internal operations branch, we are taking that commitment one step further. By keeping our services in-house, we gain full control over everything from daily cleaning routines to on-call maintenance and support. This will allow us to be more proactive, consistent, and responsive to the needs of our residents. It also means we can align our services with the same environmental values that guide the design and construction of our units, for example by using sustainable cleaning products, minimizing waste, and training our staff in energy-efficient maintenance practices.
We also recognize that universities may already have established campus facilities teams or preferred partnerships. That’s why our model is designed to be flexible. While Sciving will offer a full-service operational package as a default, we also invite universities to propose their own internal teams to manage the units locally if that better suits their needs. In these cases, we will work closely with those teams to provide guidelines and training, ensuring that students receive the same high-quality experience regardless of who is delivering it.
The creation of this new operational branch has already begun, with recruitment and training processes currently underway. Our team is focused on building a service model that reflects the same attention to detail, care, and sustainability that goes into our physical housing units. Just as we have rethought student housing design from the ground up, we are now rethinking the way student housing is maintained and managed.
As our first residents prepare to move in later this year, we are laying the groundwork for a long-term vision of student housing that is both innovative and dependable. We look forward to sharing more updates as our new management and cleaning branch takes shape and as we continue working with universities to build the future of student living together.
