Amarillo janitorial contract

AMENDMENT A00001:
The following are questions and answers between the government and industry:

Q1: The Statement of Work doesn't list restroom cleaning anywhere in the task schedule, daily, weekly, or otherwise. Can you confirm whether restrooms are part of this contract's scope or if building management handles them separately?
A1: handled separately , restrooms are external and shared by other tenants and covered by building owner

Q2: Our quote is due September 25, so I would appreciate an opportunity to walk the facility as soon as your schedule permits.
A2: Please coordinate directly with Zella for a site visit. zratliffe@blm.gov (806) 356-1033

Q3: 1. Is all janitorial work to be performed at 801 S. Fillmore in Amarillo, or are there additional work locations, including any outside the Amarillo area or in Colorado? If travel is required, to which sites, how often, and for what purpose?
2. What are the required cleaning areas, approximate square footage, tasks, service frequency, work hours, and anticipated start date and period of performance?
3. Are there any mandatory site visits, and if so, how can a local prospective contractor arrange one before the quotation deadline?
4. Are there specific insurance, equipment, staffing, or previous-contract experience requirements beyond those described in the solicitation? Is an active SAM.gov registration required at quotation submission or at award?
5. Would you please confirm where we can access the complete Performance Work Statement, solicitation, wage determination, and any amendments? If there is a designated format or price schedule, please identify it.
A3: The Amarillo address is the only service address for this requirement. Unfortunately the travel language may be a copy/paste error. There is no mandatory site visit, but if one is desired, then please contact zratliffe@blm.gov
