Attachment 4 - Daily Grounds Maintenance Checklist.pdf

This is a sample Daily Grounds Checklist template designed for landscaping and grounds maintenance contract performance tracking and verification.

The checklist documents daily work performed across nine categories of grounds maintenance services: Lawn Maintenance (mowing, edging, aerating, dethatching); Trash/Litter Collection and Sweeping (washing receptacles, emptying trash, replacing liners, picking up litter, sweeping/washing paved surfaces); Fertilization (lawn and other vegetation); Weed Eradication (removing weeds and cutting); Sprinkler System (inspecting operation, adjusting and repairing heads, controls, and timers); Insecticide Application (spraying in developed and undeveloped areas); and Pruning (pruning trees and shrubs in developed and undeveloped areas, removing fallen branches, fruit, and leaves). The template includes columns for the date, verification checkboxes indicating whether work was performed, and an "Areas of Work" column for noting specific locations or additional details. A comments section accommodates additional notes, and the form requires signatures from both the landscaper performing the work and the contract manager overseeing performance verification. This template serves as a daily performance accountability and documentation tool for federal grounds maintenance contracts.
