I ran a 30‑day trial of a UV‑C disinfection robot in a 200‑desk office to test whether the technology would deliver measurable microbial reduction and be practical for day‑to‑day cleaning operations. Below I share the exact approach I used, the sampling plan, safety and operational steps, how we measured results, and the kind of evidence you can present to stakeholders. This is a...
