About this file

This is a Performance Work Statement (PWS) for custodial operations at Fort Buchanan Commissary in Puerto Rico, effective July 1, 2026. The contractor must furnish all personnel, supervision, supplies, equipment, tools, materials, and services necessary to perform night custodial tasks within the 39,273 square-foot commissary facility located at 689 N Terminal Rd, Fort Buchanan, PR 00934-4576. Night custodial work occurs during designated windows: 9:00 pm to 3:30 am on Sundays and 10:00 pm to 4:30 am Monday through Saturday. The commissary operates during standard hours with closures on New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

The contractor must establish and maintain a quality control plan, provide a Project Manager present during all service performance, and submit custodial work schedules to the Store Director. Key requirements include floor maintenance across multiple surface types (Epoxy Terrazzo, Vinyl Composition Tile, Ceramic/Quarry, and Aluminum Grating), underneath cleaning of gondolas and end caps, glass and window cleaning to heights up to 20 feet, restroom sanitization and supply replenishment, ash and trash removal, and hazardous material handling in accordance with OSHA standards. The contractor furnishes all operating supplies including FDA/USDA-approved cleaning agents listed in the NSF White Book, must use only clear plastic bags, and is responsible for maintaining Material Safety Data Sheets on-site. The Government provides facilities, utilities, bulk refuse disposal, and identifies designated storage areas; the contractor is responsible for equipment security. Performance is evaluated through Contracting Officer Representative inspections with quality assurance based on random sampling, periodic inspections, and customer complaints. Contractor-caused merchandise damage exceeding monthly allowances ($500–$800 depending on sales volume) results in dollar-for-dollar deductions from payment. Defects trigger corrective action reports with escalation procedures including cure notices and potential termination for default.

1.1.2. Contractor/Government Relations. Commissaries sell food and non-food items to authorized patrons in facilities and under operating conditions that are very similar to commercial supermarkets. Each commissary has an onsite supervisor—a Store Director—who is responsible for overall commissary operations. When the term Store Director is used elsewhere in this contract, it means the Store Director personally or any commissary personnel designated by a Store Director to act as an authorized representative of the Government. The Government will employ Contracting Officer Representatives (COR) to surveil and document Contractor performance. The Government Contracting Officer is responsible for overall administration/oversight of this contract. The Contracting Officer is solely authorized to change contract terms, to terminate the contract for default, and to make determinations that relate to contract terms and conditions, and contractor performance. To facilitate compliance with the provisions of this contract, and coordination of commissary and contracted operations, the Contractor’s Project Manager (PM) and the Store Director should regularly and routinely discuss matters relating to contract performance. As necessary, the Contracting Officer may participate in these discussions. When the term PM is used elsewhere in this contract, it includes the PM and any alternate PM whom the Contractor may employ. Where the term Contractor employee is used elsewhere in this contract, it means any member of the Contractor’s work force including the PM.
