Environmental stewardship
We strive to reduce our environmental impact, and that of our more than 20,000 clients around the world, through our actions, policies, and partnerships.
Sustainability solutions
Our expanding portfolio of environmentally conscious products and services is designed to help clients optimize their operations, shrink their resource footprint, and meet their sustainability goals.
Scalable eMobility solutions
We provide turnkey eMobility infrastructure tailored to the operational demands of commercial, municipal, and mission-critical EV fleets. From design and engineering to commissioning and ongoing performance management, our solutions are built for scalability, uptime, and carbon impact reduction.
- Full-scope EV charging infrastructure: Design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance
- Continuous performance monitoring through ABM’s Network Operations Center (NOC) and EV Service Plan
- Solutions for public infrastructure, fleet operations, transit, and aviation
- Emissions reporting, certification support, and usage analytics
Resiliency and uninterrupted power supply
We ensure energy continuity through integrated power infrastructure solutions that combine advanced backup generation, renewable energy, and automated system monitoring. These services mitigate risk, support emergency preparedness, and enable uninterrupted operations in high-reliability environments.
- Remote diagnostics, load testing, and system automation via RavenVolt Cortex
- Renewable power solutions: rooftop, ground-mount, and floating solar
- Emergency backup generation for client sites in storm- and outage-prone geographies
- Support for meeting "gold standard" uptime requirements in mission-critical and data center environments
Energy efficiency upgrades
We deliver targeted energy upgrades that address both facility performance and sustainability objectives. We conduct detailed assessments to identify inefficiencies and implement practical, cost-effective measures—ranging from HVAC optimization to thermal envelope improvements—that reduce energy consumption and support emissions reduction targets.
- Facility energy audits and data-driven opportunity analysis
- Thermal imaging and infrared thermography to detect overheating components, harmonic distortion, and capacity constraints
- Retro-commissioning and automation controls
- HVAC and mechanical system optimization
- Smarter lighting solutions
Eco-friendly cleaning and waste diversion
Our environmentally responsible cleaning and waste management programs support certification frameworks such as LEED and the Cleaning Industry Management Standard (CIMS) while improving transparency and operational sustainability. We use third-party certified products, non-toxic alternatives, and smart technology to reduce waste, track usage, and improve efficiency across client sites.
- AI-enabled sensors for bin tracking, contamination identification, and service optimization
- Sustainable chemical alternatives including electrolyzed water and aqueous ozone
- Green-certified cleaning products (Green Seal, ECOLOGO, USDA BioPreferred)
- Green procurement visibility via ABM Connect™
- High-durability microfiber systems to reduce material waste

Winter storm vulnerabilities
Winter storms can wreak havoc on energy systems, leading to power outages and disrupted services. The same RavenVolt Cortex platform that powers our clients' resiliency infrastructure monitors weather conditions across the nation daily, prompting our 24/7 Network Operations Center (NOC) to prepare monitored microgrids well ahead of storms. This gives service technicians logged data and alarm codes to speed troubleshooting and resolution when storms hit.
Building a reliable supply chain
ABM is committed to curating a broad ecosystem of suppliers that enhances our service delivery and fuels economic vitality in the communities where we operate. We recognize that economically empowered businesses, in addition to strengthening our supply chain, also contribute to the long-term sustainability and growth of our markets.
Our Strategic Partner Mentorship Program plays a key role in developing a resilient supply chain aligned with our go-to-market strategies and broader business objectives. Launched in 2025 with a pilot cohort of nine graduating partners, the program is expanding through 2026 with workshops, webinars, and one-on-one coaching from ABM executives, culminating in a graduation ceremony and networking opportunities for participating suppliers. Through this program, we aim to:
Securing business continuity
Beyond the power-continuity solutions we build for clients, ABM safeguards its own ability to deliver service without interruption — across our office locations in all 50 U.S. states and abroad, and for the tens of thousands of team members who travel to client sites daily. Contingency and business continuity plans, along with crisis management and disaster recovery procedures, are reviewed regularly with our Safety, Risk, and Legal teams to keep us prepared for any adverse weather that could affect service delivery.
We continuously drive improvements in health and safety, boost productivity, and enhance occupant experience and satisfaction, while focusing on client sustainability priorities
Revolutionizing facility care
IoT sensor technology
We install IoT-enabled sensors in paper towel dispensers and restrooms to optimize restocking, reduce waste, and improve labor efficiency. These sensors track usage patterns and integrate with ABM Connect™ to support data-driven service scheduling and real-time facility performance monitoring.
AI-powered waste management
Our bin-tracking sensors are delivered in partnership with Recycle Track Systems through the Pello Sensor, giving clients a supported, branded version of this capability. In practice, that means haulers are alerted when bins reach a preset capacity, replacing weekly pickups with an optimized schedule that increases recycling rates and reduces haul-off costs.
Robotic cleaning
ABM has launched a autonomous robotics pilot in partnership with LaGuardia Gateway Partners (LGP), the operator of LaGuardia Airport’s award-winning Terminal B. As part of the pilot, ABM introduced both autonomous inspection and cleaning robots.
These autonomous machines operate safely and with minimal supervision, allowing our janitorial teams to focus on higher-value service responsibilities, and reduce floor chemical and water usage by 50–70%. Broader applications, including humanoid robotics, remain in early exploration and will progress gradually.
Nontoxic cleaning
For industries with high sanitation standards, such as aviation, ABM offers Aqueous Ozone—a chemical-free, fast-acting cleaning solution. This eco-friendly oxidizer meets health department requirements, reduces chemical costs by up to 93%, and cuts drying times by up to 60%, all while eliminating residue and airborne irritants.
Inspire Today's InnovationAligned with client priorities
ABM's governance structure safeguards and advances client interests at every level. In partnership with independent director-led committees, our board provides disciplined oversight over sustainability and responsibility performance. In 2025, we strengthened this foundation with the launch of a cross-functional Sustainability Council, bringing together leaders from operations, legal, procurement, finance, environmental, health and safety, investor relations, and other key functions to drive our sustainability strategy forward. We work closely to anticipate risks and shape real-time business strategies, ensuring transparency and long-term value.
