Matt Gornick is the Founder & CEO of OrangeQC, a bootstrapped SaaS company that’s digitizing quality control for the janitorial and facilities industry. Matt founded OrangeQC in 2009 while he was a student at the University of Illinois, where he won the Cozad New Venture Challenge.
Under his leadership, OrangeQC has revolutionized how cleaning and facility maintenance teams operate — turning cumbersome paper checklists into streamlined mobile inspections with real-time reporting, GPS data, and photo documentation.
Matt’s vision was born out of frustration: he saw how existing software for facility inspections was so complicated that frontline workers refused to use it. To him, simplicity wasn’t a compromise — it was the core of powerful tools that actually get used. orangeqc.com
Over the years, he’s grown OrangeQC into a trusted partner for high-profile clients — including universities, hospitals, and major service contractors. OrangeQC has enabled more than 10 million inspections via its platform and is used by large institutions like hospitals, universities, airports, and building service contractors.
