The Office of Attorney General, Bureau of Narcotics Investigation and Drug Control, Region VIII is seeking janitorial, recycling, and trash removal services for its facility located at 680 Baltimore Drive in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The contract opportunity covers comprehensive cleaning services for a 5,919 square foot facility that includes 10 private offices, 23 cubicles, multiple restrooms, a conference room, and interview spaces. Potential contractors must have a minimum of two years of active experience in janitorial services and must provide references demonstrating their operational capabilities. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for September 13, 2017, at 11:00 a.m., and bids must be submitted electronically through the Commonwealth's SRM system prior to the September 21, 2017 closing date. The initial contract term is twelve months, with potential for up to four additional one-year renewal options, and the award will be based on a lump sum pricing model with payment made for actual work performed.

While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly stated in the documentation, contractors will be required to complete extensive background investigation forms for all employees who will perform services at the facility. The contractor must provide their own cleaning supplies and equipment, with the Office of Attorney General supplying only replacement light bulbs. Background checks will be conducted at no cost to the contractor, and employees must submit detailed personal and employment information, including copies of identification documents. The contract includes provisions for liquidated damages in cases of unsatisfactory performance and requires compliance with security and confidentiality protocols. Though a specific budget range is not detailed, the comprehensive requirements suggest a moderate-value contract focusing on maintaining a professional government facility with strict operational standards.
