This Solicitation Addendum #2 Questions and Answers document pertains to the Nebraska Game & Parks Commission (NGPC) cleaning services solicitation (Number 123663-O3) for its headquarters offices and facilities in Lincoln, Nebraska. The solicitation seeks a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive cleaning services for two connected office buildings housing approximately 145 employees, with work performed five days per week between 5 PM and 5 AM. The contract term is four years with options to renew for four additional one-year periods, commencing January 1, 2026. Specific cleaning requirements include daily tasks such as emptying trash cans, cleaning restrooms, filling dispensers, and cleaning floors and carpets, along with weekly and monthly deeper cleaning activities. A mandatory solicitation conference was held on November 18, 2025, with proposal responses due by December 8, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time. This addendum was effective December 1, 2025.

The addendum addresses a critical clarification regarding consumable products: the state will provide cleaning supplies and paper products, and these items are not the contractor's responsibility. The vendor is responsible for providing custodial staff, with initial background checks conducted and paid for by NGPC, while subsequent background check costs for personnel changes fall to the vendor. The solicitation does not specify an explicit budget or funding source in the available documentation. All questions and answers contained in this addendum are to be considered part of the solicitation, and bidders are responsible for monitoring the State Purchasing Bureau website for all addenda or amendments.
