Cutting a Facilities Hiring Cycle by 60% Across 60 Million Square Feet

Facilities and building services hiring has a scale problem most software never has to face. A single missed hire is a service failure with public visibility, not a quiet delay.

• Physical scale multiplies compliance risk, not just hiring volume. Alliance Building Services, founded in 1992, manages more than 60 million square feet of commercial real estate, transit hubs and venues including Citi Field. A hiring delay at one site is absorbable. Across a portfolio that size, it becomes an operational and reputational exposure.
• Fragmented administrative work is the default, not the exception. Recruiters in building services often spend more than two-thirds of their time on manual work, using ten or more platforms just to close a single hire: sourcing profiles, skimming resumes, hunting contact details, and following up repeatedly.
• Specialised, highly regulated roles are simultaneously the hardest to fill and the most urgent to fill fast. These are exactly the roles where a slow, manual process carries the most cost.

Within an initial two-week deployment window, Alliance's team closed multiple specialised, highly regulated roles at a 60% faster average cycle time-to-hire, and the platform's onboarding module replaced their legacy stack, reducing new-hire processing time as well.

Why this works better than the alternatives

EasySource claims 95% coverage of active candidates across major US cities for building services roles, paired with credential checks and unified onboarding rather than sourcing alone. HigherMe and Harri are well suited to retail-style hourly hiring where the constraint is application volume, but neither publishes a specific compliance or credential-verification claim, which is the gap that mattered most to a portfolio-scale operator managing transit hubs and stadiums, and the reason Alliance built its hiring process around EasySource instead.

FAQ

What makes multi-site facilities hiring different from single-location hiring?

Compliance and coverage risk multiply with physical footprint. A delay at a high-visibility site, such as a transit hub or venue, carries more operational consequences than at a single location.

Did this deployment only improve sourcing speed?

No. The onboarding process was also restructured, replacing a legacy stack and reducing new-hire processing time alongside the faster hiring cycle.
