Janitorial Services, Avery Office and Engine Bay

The contract for janitorial services at the Avery Office and Engine Bay in Idaho is a firm-fixed-price, total small business set-aside under NAICS code 561720, with a potential performance period of up to five years, including one base year and four one-year option periods. The award will follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) selection strategy, where technical acceptability is evaluated as a pass/fail criteria across five mandatory factors: submission of the completed SF-1449 and Schedule of Items, relevant past performance between 2023 and 2025, key personnel qualifications with experience and subcontractor disclosures, accurate representations and certifications verified in SAM, and adherence to a single PDF submission format. All pricing information is unpopulated in the solicitation, as offerors are required to provide their own rates for services categorized as high, medium, and low janitorial, carpet cleaning, window cleaning, and surge cleaning, with no contract value estimate disclosed. The work must comply with performance standards defined in the Performance Work Statement, including strict cleanliness criteria for fixtures, mirrors, and stairways, and must not exceed two valid customer complaints or two missed tasks per month. The contractor must supply all necessary personnel, equipment, materials—including plastic garbage liners, paper towels, and liquid hand soap—and ensure compliance with OSHA regulations, USDA Bio-Preferred guidelines for biobased products, and manufacturer-recommended storage for cleaning chemicals with accessible Safety Data Sheets. Packaging, preservation, and marking requirements are minimal, with no MIL-STD references; labeling must be SDS-compliant and include item identification for inventory purposes. The place of performance is in Avery, Idaho, with inspection and acceptance occurring on-site by the Contracting Officer’s Representative. The contractor must submit proof of a Government Background Investigation for all personnel and must be prepared to immediately replace any employee deemed incompetent or failing the investigation. Subcontractors must flow down these requirements. The contractor is also required to visit the site before bidding and must submit all documentation in a single, consolidated PDF file via email to Brian A. Johnson, Contracting Officer, with no alternative submission methods permitted. Invoicing must be done exclusively through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP), and all representations and certifications must be current in SAM, as the government will verify them directly. Failure to meet any technical requirement or misrepresentation in SAM may result in disqualification, termination, or legal liability.
