Janitorial Services Specifications / Requirements

General

A. Janitorial cleaning services shall be provided on a two day per week schedule unless it conflicts with standard services provided by the Lessor to other tenants, or as circumstances may warrant for more cleaning days. All janitorial cleaning shall be performed between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, or by appointment scheduled in advance, with each recruiting service. The Contractor shall notify the designated Military Service Representative(s) (MSR) of any deviation to the previously agreed upon appointment and schedule an alternate appointment for cleaning. No keys, passwords, PINs, or entry codes to Government leased facilities are to be provided to Contractors under any circumstances.

B. The MSR shall unlock doors for the Contractor and shall be physically present and visible in the facility during all cleaning at the scheduled appointment time. The MSR shall be present in the facility a minimum of 15 minutes prior to the scheduled appointment time and wait a maximum of 30 minutes beyond appointment time for the Contractor to arrive for cleaning, after which time the Contractor shall be deemed to have not met the appointment. It should be noted that in multi-service stations, if the Contractor is actively working in another Service's area, the MSR should not leave or mark this as a no-show and should make arrangements with the Contractor on site to complete cleaning as soon as practicable. A no-show by the Contractor shall be reported immediately via the military chain of command to the Real Estate POC and must be recorded on the janitorial checklist. If the MSR is a no-show (fails to be available to open the facility a maximum of 30 minutes beyond appointment time) the contractor will not make up that day's cleaning and shall report to clean on the next scheduled appointment time with no penalty assessment. The contractor shall immediately report a no-show by MSR(s) to the Real Estate POC. No cleaning shall be accomplished on Federal Holidays. If a Federal Holiday occurs on one of the regularly scheduled cleaning days, the Contractor shall perform the cleaning on the next business day. The Contractor shall ensure that cleaning services occur at least twice per week.

C. If an office is going to be vacated for a period of four (4) weeks or more for reasons such as recruiter assignment rotation, the appropriate military service representative must notify the USACE district representatives.

D. Separate appointments shall be made for all periodic carpet cleaning at a time that will allow for ample time for damp carpets to dry without undue traffic from normal business activities. It is recommended that the carpet cleaning be accomplished late in the day on Friday to allow drying time. The Contractor will not be responsible for moving furniture or any items left on the floor. Prior to scheduled cleaning, the Services should remove all items from the floor, except heavy furniture items, to maximize the effectiveness of carpet cleaning. A MSR must be physically present during carpet cleaning.

E. The Janitorial Service Checklist (see enclosed) shall be posted in each Service space and common areas. The checklist shall be completed by the Janitorial Contractor and signed at the completion of each week’s cleaning.

The MSR will also sign signifying that the specified work has been completed in a satisfactory manner. This checklist shall be used by the Contractor. Do not sign off in advance of anticipated completed work.

F. The Contractor shall provide all necessary labor, transportation, tools, materials, equipment, and supplies required to perform services. All cleaning procedures and treatments shall be accomplished in accordance with the manufacturer's directions and/or listed specifications and industry standards applicable to the Professional Cleaning and Restoration Industry. The Contractor shall use environmentally friendly products for all maintenance and cleaning. For disinfection of high-touch surfaces, at minimum, Contractor must use alcohol solutions with at least 70% alcohol. Most EPA-Registered household disinfectants and Clorox disinfecting wipes are allowed. Use of recycled materials is highly encouraged.
