NIGP 91039: Janitorial/Custodial Services

NIGP 91039 Janitorial/Custodial Services, an Item code, encompasses routine and periodic cleaning of government buildings and facilities—offices, restrooms, floors, common areas, and specialized spaces—performed by contract vendors who supply labor, equipment, and supplies. State and local governments are actively procuring this service across jurisdictions and facility types, with recent solicitations from state water authorities, highway patrol departments, municipalities, school districts, universities, transit authorities, and special districts. The mix of issuing bodies reflects the breadth of government operations: the Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority in Georgia, California Department of Highway Patrol, Texas State University, various city governments, Florida school districts, and state departments of transportation and administration. Recent opportunities span environmental compliance (prevailing wage, Davis-Bacon, DVBE participation), site-specific performance standards (mandatory walkthroughs, background checks, security clearances), and equipment/supply responsibility allocation (contractors typically furnish labor and equipment; agencies sometimes provide chemicals or consumables). Geographic activity concentrates in California, Georgia, Florida, Massachusetts, Missouri, Texas, Nevada, Maryland, Illinois, and Oregon, with scattered activity nationwide.
