ASCEN brings Lleida.net registered e-signatures to its members
Commercial cleaning is a high-turnover, labour-intensive industry drowning in daily paperwork, from onboarding staff and signing supplier contracts to dispatching HR notices, authorisations, and compliance alerts. Today, much of this administrative bottleneck can be cleared swiftly, securely, and with airtight legal enforceability, shielding businesses from regulatory audits and employment disputes.
That is the driving force behind the strategic partnership between ASCEN and Lleida.net, giving member companies exclusive commercial access to Click & Sign, Lleida.net’s market-leading e-signature platform, alongside their full suite of registered services.
ASCEN is the leading trade body representing the commercial building and premises cleaning sector in Catalonia, Spain. Backed by a 45-year heritage and over 150 member companies, its core mission is to champion a stable, influential, and forward-thinking environment for the industry.
By adopting registered e-signature tools, members can effortlessly digitalise their workflows, secure their document management, and gain total legal peace of mind.

The challenge
Cutting through the paper trail in a high-turnover sector
Cleaning contractors constantly juggle administrative tasks that demand rigorous legal certainty. From fast-paced staff onboarding to nailing down supplier contracts or sending registered compliance notices Eliminating this legacy paperwork, which is still heavily manual across the industry, was a primary goal identified by ASCEN. Any solution had to tick four non-negotiable boxes:
- Airtight legal weight: offering undeniable proof during audits and robust evidence if disputes arise.
- Commercial muscle: volume-driven pricing per signature that individual cleaning firms could never secure on their own.
- Operational flexibility: user-friendly for firms with limited technical resources, yet robust enough for those wanting direct system integration
- Backed by a trusted provider: partnering with a Qualified Electronic Trust Service Provider certified under the eIDAS Regulation.
The solution
Tailor-made registered e-signatures built for every member company
The partnership establishes bespoke, highly competitive pricing for ASCEN members across all e-signatures and registered services. This goes far beyond a standard discount: it puts cutting-edge tech from a global patent leader directly into the hands of local cleaning businesses on terms that are otherwise entirely out of reach.
Members can choose to send documents manually via the web portal or automate everything seamlessly by plugging the API straight into their existing management software. This dual pathway ensures that boutique firms looking for an instant, out-of-the-box fix and larger operators with bespoke software can embed the tools into their daily routine with zero friction.
"At ASCEN, we take immense pride in teaming up with specialist, trusted local innovators. This alliance with Lleida.net arms our members with an unbeatable, fully legally binding solution tailored for our industry."
