About this file
Exhibit A is a document from the Association of Physical Plant Administrators (APPA) detailing a comprehensive five-level cleanliness assessment framework for facilities maintenance and cleaning standards. The document provides detailed indicators for each level of cleanliness, ranging from Level 1 (Orderly Spotlessness) to Level 5 (Unkempt Neglect), with lower scores representing higher levels of cleanliness.
The document is directly related to a facilities operations supplemental labor contract for approximately 95 locations across the Downtown and Evansdale Campuses of a West Virginia institution, which includes academic, administrative, dormitory, athletic, and multi-use spaces. The APPA cleanliness levels serve as a standardized reference for evaluating and maintaining cleaning quality, with each level describing progressively deteriorating conditions of floors, surfaces, fixtures, lighting, and waste management areas. This framework provides a clear, objective methodology for assessing and maintaining facility cleanliness, which would be crucial for the successful execution of the supplemental janitorial and minor repair services contract.

• There is no buildup in corners or along walls.
• All vertical and horizontal surfaces have a freshly cleaned or polished appearance and have no accumulation of dust, dirt, marks, streaks, smudges, or fingerprints. Lights all work and fixtures are clean.
• Washroom and shower fixtures and tile gleam and are odor free. Supplies are adequate.
• Trash containers and pencil sharpeners hold only daily waste and are clean and odor free.
Level 2—Ordinary Tidiness indicators
Same as Level 1 with the following exceptions
• There can be up to two-days worth of dust, dirt, stains, or streaks on floors and base molding
• Dust, smudges, and fingerprints are noticeable on vertical and horizontal surfaces
Level 3—Casual Inattention indicators
• Floors are swept or vacuumed clean, but upon close observation, there can be stains. A buildup of dirt and/or floor finish in corners and along walls can be seen.
• There are dull spots and/or matted carpet in walking lanes. There are streaks or splashes on base molding.
• All vertical and horizontal surfaces have obvious dust, dirt, marks, smudges, and fingerprints. Lamps all work and fixtures are clean.
• Trash containers and pencil sharpeners hold only daily waste and are clean and odor free.

Lamp fixtures are dirty, and some lamps (up to 5 percent) are burned out.
• Trash containers and pencil sharpeners have old trash and shavings. They are stained and marked.
Trash containers smell sour.
Level 5—Unkempt Neglect indicators

Exhibit A
• All vertical and horizontal surfaces have major accumulations of dust, dirt, smudges, and fingerprints, all of which will be difficult to remove. Lack of attention is obvious.
