This is a Solicitation Addendum #2 Questions and Answers document issued by the State of Nebraska, Nebraska Game & Parks Commission (NGPC), for Cleaning Services for HQ Offices and Facilities (Solicitation Number 123663-O3). The solicitation seeks a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive cleaning services for NGPC's headquarters offices and facilities in Lincoln, Nebraska, covering two connected office buildings with approximately 145 employees. Work is to be performed five days per week between 5 PM and 5 AM, with cleaning tasks including daily emptying of trash cans, restroom cleaning, dispenser filling, and floor and carpet cleaning, supplemented by weekly and monthly deeper cleaning activities. The contract term is four years commencing January 1, 2026, with an option to renew for four additional one-year periods. The proposal response deadline is December 8, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time, with a mandatory solicitation conference held on November 18, 2025.

The vendor is responsible for providing all custodial staff and cleaning supplies, with initial background checks conducted and paid for by NGPC and subsequent background check costs for personnel changes borne by the vendor. This addendum clarifies that NGPC will provide cleaning and paper products, which are not the contractor's responsibility. The solicitation does not specify an explicit budget amount, set-aside designations, or incumbent vendor information. The State of Nebraska reserves the right to contract with multiple vendors or terminate the contract with appropriate notice, and proposals will be evaluated based on service capability, cost-effectiveness, staff qualifications, and ability to meet specified cleaning requirements.
