Could artificial intelligence revolutionise the future of commercial cleaning?
One Hawke s Bay commercial cleaning company director believes so and is working to develop AI technology for his cleaners to analyse their work in real-time.
Two years in the making, Hastings business The Clean Crew has launched an app called Convoy that guides its cleaning team through a job, with photo and video evidence verified by supervisors and available for the client.
A Hawke s Bay council review has found the region has too many business support groups trying to do the same thing.
The Hawke s Bay Business Hub, where Business Hawke s Bay is based, will likely stay open even if the agency closes.

One of the groups fears its days are numbered and that its removal could hobble the region s economy.
In the region there are groups and brands such as Hawke s Bay NZ, Great Things Grow Here, Be in the Bay, Business Hawke s Bay and the Hawke s Bay Chamber of Commerce but many people do not understand the role of each.
