HCA's Pricing Tools Article - Statistical Analysis & Practical Applications
 During 2006, the House Cleaning Alliance sponsored a statistical study to derive a formula for pricing house cleaning assignments. The details of the study are documented in "Pricing House Cleaning Assignments" which explores the work done during the creation of the pricer, explanations of how to use it, and a lot of technical details about the statistical analysis. |

HCA Free Desktop Pricer
The HCA Free Desktop Pricer allows any HCA visitor to use the HCA Pricing Tools free. The Free version even allows visitors to modify the formulae coefficients, and enter homeowner statistics. The primary difference between the Free Version and the Member Version is that Members can save their revisions and analyze results under saved scenarios, while visitors using the free version cannot save revisions. Additionally, the results of the Member Version can be linked to controls added to Members websites, and their Hand-held Pricer, if Members wish to add those features.

HCA Website Pricer
 The HCA Website Pricer can be added to a House Cleaning Company's website. Homeowners and prospective customers visit a Company's website and can enter values to get an idea of the company's prices by completing the survey themselves. Of course the results are only as good as the inputs, so most companies which use the Website Pricer Control include disclaimers about it being a "Ballpark Price" which can differ from the actual quote, as it is depending on values entered by the homeowner. Aside from the values input by the homeowner, the output values of the Website Pricer Control are also influenced by coefficients set in the Desk-Top Pricer by the operator of the house cleaning company. |

HCA Remote Pricer
The HCA Remote Pricer is presently being tested. During an in-home quote, a Company's representative surveys the prospective customer's home and inputs observations in the Hand-Held Pricer, which is a special purpose web-page accessed by any web-enabled hand-held device, like a phone or PDA. The output values of the Hand-held Pricer are influenced centrally by coefficients set in the Desk-Top Pricer. |
