Tier One Property Services

What Tier One Property Services does

Tier One Property Services, L.L.C. (DBA Tier One Aztec Property Services) is a privately held, NMSDC-certified Minority Business Enterprise founded in 2011 and headquartered in Sugar Land, Texas. The company provides commercial janitorial, building maintenance, and specialty property services to enterprise clients across 48 U.S. states, with a stated delivery footprint of more than 300 million square feet serviced daily (a figure that includes partner-operated facilities). Service lines span general janitorial cleaning, day porter, carpet and hard floor care, window washing, clean room cleaning, parking lot and pressure washing, snow removal, emergency and disaster restoration, security guard services, and a Green Cleaning program built on Green Seal Certified products and CRI Green Label Certified equipment. The underlying operating model is process-based: multi-tiered inspection, strategic quality-control metrics, and a documented safety culture (EMR 0.68, TRIR 0.13, BSCAI Safety Award, 85,271 injury-free man hours in 2020) that underwrites eligibility for hazardous-environment work.

The business model is enterprise managed-services: long-term, multi-site facility services contracts negotiated individually with large buyers rather than transactional or SMB sales. Tier One positions itself as a single point of contact for all facility needs and sells predominantly to Fortune 500 accounts in oil refining (ExxonMobil across Joliet, Baton Rouge, Baytown; BP Cherry Point and Whiting), industrial manufacturing, banking, automotive, education, healthcare, and government, with refinery and industrial work as the demonstrated core. GTM is direct enterprise field sales supported by a national office network in Texas, Ohio, and Missouri. The company is majority-owned by the Woodley Family Trust and has a minority equity stake from Marsden Holding, one of the largest privately-held U.S. security and facility services operators; this structure, plus a partnership with Woodley Building Services, provides the capital, operating scale, and minority-supplier credentials that anchor Tier One's go-to-market with supplier-diversity-mandated enterprise buyers. The 2016 acquisition of Aztec Facility Services extended the platform's tenure in the Houston energy corridor and contributed an award-winning safety and supplier-diversity record.
