Performance Expectations The LCNHTIC is a showcase public facility that receives a high volume of daily visitors. Facility safety, security, hygiene and cleanliness are the four expectation criteria under this contract that will be measured in conformance with the Surveillance Plan. The performance expectation is that the Contractor shall consistently meet these criteria.

Hygiene

The high visitor traffic enjoying this facility has the potential for spread of disease to those members of the public with reduced immune systems that make up a large percentage of LCNHTIC visitors, (i.e.; children, nursing mothers and the elderly).

The sanitized surface shall be free of cleaning and disinfectant residue using conventional solutions and materials that had not come in contact with any unsanitized surface.

Cleanliness The janitorial services standards at the LCNHTIC for clean and polished defined below exceed what is conventionally recognized as sufficient for a commercial office and instead is what an ordinary person expects at a quality museum or art gallery. All other defined terms meet those consistently sufficient for commercial office janitorial services and should be equal to industry standard. Aspects of cleanliness as well have janitorial safety considerations, especially with regard to the adequacy of stairway and railing cleaning, and the immediate cleanup of spills on any walking surface during the performance of service.
