The project involves providing non-personal services to clean, sanitize, and install Continuous Infection Microbial Reduction (CIMR) devices in 11 buildings, covering approximately 430,000 square feet. The contractor will be responsible for installing or refurbishing an estimated 300 CIMR devices, which produce ultra-low level hydrogen peroxide to neutralize mold, bacteria, and viruses, and must comply with OSHA safety standards for continuous human occupancy.

Key requirements include conducting an initial assessment within 5 days of Notice to Proceed, developing a cleaning/sanitizing workplan, executing the full cleaning/sanitizing within 150 calendar days, and monitoring air quality for a full year. The contractor must clean entire air conveyance systems, including ducts, registers, grilles, and diffusers, while maintaining daily site cleanliness and providing monthly air quality reports. Environmental compliance is critical, with strict guidelines on hazardous materials handling, spill control, and potential EPA or state environmental inspections. The contract includes a 3-year warranty for parts and a 24-month warranty for contractor-provided equipment.
