With the addition of TEAM Software, WorkWave expands its service software presence across the cleaning, janitorial, and security verticals.


HOLMDEL, N.J. - WorkWave announced that it has signed an agreement to purchase TEAM Software, a leading provider of software and solutions for cleaning, janitorial, security, and facilities management service providers. The acquisition is expected to close at the end of September.

“This acquisition marks a major step forward in the execution of WorkWave’s strategy to push into new markets, while leveraging our proven track record of helping our customers provide superior service and build fast-growing and highly profitable companies,” said David F. Giannetto, CEO of WorkWave. “We are thrilled to be joining forces with TEAM to deliver on our shared commitment to provide the greatest value to our entire customer base.”

Darren Roos, chairperson of the board at WorkWave, added, “With the acquisition of proven brands such as Real Green, Slingshot, Coalmarch, and TEAM Software, WorkWave now stands alone as the premier provider of the broadest set of SaaS software and solutions supporting the widest range of service industries. WorkWave has a proven track record of delivering customers value, so empowering more customers, across more geographies, with more industry-specific solutions, adds fuel to the company’s continued growth.”
