This is a Public Notice of Request for Proposal Initial Evaluation Team Meeting issued by the Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA) for janitorial services across four facilities: the JCW Administration Building, Lackey Service Center, Fleet Services, and Davis Operations Center. The RFP 26-041-SH solicitation required proposals to be submitted by July 28, 2026 at 2:00 PM EST, with a mandatory pre-bid conference and site visit held on July 9, 2026 at 10:00 AM. The evaluation team meeting to finalize the evaluation process is scheduled for Wednesday, August 19, 2026 at 10:00 AM via Zoom. Services include routine daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and semi-annual deep cleaning across 74,465 square feet, performed Monday through Friday during a 6:00 PM to 12:00 AM service window. The initial contract term is three years commencing January 1, 2027, with two optional one-year renewal periods available for a potential five-year total.

KUA disclosed an annual budget of $160,000 for informational purposes, with an estimated contract value range classified as Service Tier A (less than $250,000). Pricing must be submitted as firm fixed monthly rates for each location across all five contract years. Award will be made to the highest-ranked responsive and responsible proposer based on published evaluation criteria including pricing structure, response time, quality of workmanship, capabilities and experience, financial capability, and exceptions to standard terms—not solely on lowest price. KUA provides all cleaning equipment and supplies for daily and weekly services; contractors must supply their own equipment and products for semi-annual deep-cleaning tasks. A minimum of eight personnel is required to perform services. No bid bond or performance bond is required, and subcontractors may be utilized if identified in the proposal. The incumbent contractor's current contract extends through December 31, 2026. Sheila Hernandez, CPPB, FCCM, Senior Buyer, serves as the primary contact at (407) 933-9809 or procurement@kua.com.
