Jamie Spense interviews the founder of Eaco for his Private N Listed Podcast. Most people look at commercial cleaning, trades and facility management and see a low-margin, unglamorous grind. They see mops, maintenance schedules, and old-school operators who still use filing cabinets. Learn how you can look at it and see a highly profitable cash machine hiding in plain sight.

Victoria's new Building and Plumbing Commission (BPC) has been in force since 1 July 2025. The operational consequence has not landed for most facility managers and building owners yet. It will.

The lawyers thought the contracts would protect them. They were wrong. Some of Australia’s biggest retailers believed a signed contractor agreement meant their compliance risk was covered. Then the 60 Minutes investigation into a big contractor aired and that assumption collapsed overnight.

Major changes to fire safety compliance are coming. From 13 February 2026, the updated AS 1851 standard will make comprehensive asset registers mandatory for all fire protection systems and equipment within Australian buildings.

Eaco takes invoicing to another level. Sure, you can create and send invoices, but the real magic is how it automates and crowdsources all the data that goes into them. Staff, contractors, and even franchisees can contribute directly through rate cards, work logs, and AI invoice capture, wiping out double data entry and hours of admin.

10,000 properties. That’s how many commercial spaces are now managed with Eaco using our Managed Properties / Asset Management software.
