(b) If the Contractor participates in, facilitates, or funds programs that implicate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, as amended, including but not limited to grants to or for schools, colleges, universities, 4-H programs, non-governmental organization (NGO) programs, sports programs, and education-related grants to prisons or other detention facilities, the Contractor certifies that it will remain compliant with those laws, including the requirements set forth in Executive Order 14168, Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government, and Executive Order 14173, Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity.

Project Title Janitorial Services – Sandpoint Ranger District

General Information

1.0 Background and Purpose

The Forest Service Sandpoint Ranger District on the Idaho Panhandle National Forests seeks contractor support to perform janitorial services.

The U.S. Forest Service is a federal agency and subcomponent of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Forest Service is a land management agency that protects and manages 154 national forests and 20 grasslands in 44 states and Puerto Rice, encompassing 193 million acres of land, in addition to numerous wilderness, recreation, scenic, and other areas. The agency’s mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations.

Framed by the Selkirk and Cabinet mountains, Sandpoint is located 46 miles north of Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, and 72 miles north of Spokane, Washington, on the north shore of Lake Pend Oreille, Idaho’s largest lake. The Sandpoint Ranger District serves as a central hub for timber stand improvements as well as recreation. Fur traders, miners, loggers, missionaries, and the military were early settlers in the area. Logging brought the first permanent settlers around 1880. Remnants of flumes, railroads, steamboats, lookouts, work camps, and old settlements remain in the area. The Sandpoint Ranger District provides a variety of goods and services for the communities in the Inland Northwest, while working in partnership with the local community as a standard practice.

The Sandpoint Ranger District Office, Idaho Panhandle National Forests, is located at 1602 Ontario Steet, Sandpoint, Idaho 83864. Janitorial services are needed for three Government-owned facilities. Two of the buildings will require year-round janitorial services and one of the buildings will require bi-annual janitorial services. Janitorial services are required year-round for the Sandpoint Ranger District Office and the Fire Office Restroom. Janitorial services are required bi-annually for the Sandpoint Ranger District Bunkhouse.

The lobby and wings of the building have vaulted ceilings with large double paned windows and exposed timber trusses. Flooring is approximately 75% carpet and 25% linoleum.

• Fire Office Restroom The Sandpoint Fire Office is a one level building and is approximately 1,400 square feet.

However, janitorial services for the Fire Office shall be limited to the restroom which is approximately 140 square feet and includes one shower, two toilets, and one wash basin.

Flooring is 100% linoleum.

• Sandpoint Bunkhouse The Sandpoint Ranger District Bunkhouse is a one level building and is approximately 1,400 square feet. The building consists of a kitchen, common areas, four private rooms, and one restroom. The restroom consists of one shower, one toilet, and one wash basin. Flooring is approximately 50% linoleum and 50% linoleum hardwood (fake)(resilient) flooring throughout.

The contract will be a Firm-Fixed Price contract with 1 base year and 4 Option Years for a possible total of 5 years.

The period of performance will be:
