2026 Janitorial Services

Montezuma County, Colorado has released a comprehensive Request for Bid (RFB) for janitorial services across multiple county facilities for the 2026 calendar year. The procurement encompasses cleaning services for eight distinct county buildings, including the Administration Building, Transportation Department, Combined Courts, Road and Bridge Department, Annex 1, Annex 3, Sheriff's Office, and an additional administration facility. Each location requires specific cleaning services ranging from daily to semi-annual tasks, such as sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, waste management, restroom sanitization, and periodic deep cleaning like window washing and carpet shampooing. The bid solicitation mandates that all service providers submit electronic bids through www.bidnetdirect.com by 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, with a mandatory facility walkthrough scheduled for Monday, October 6, 2025, at varying times for each location. Bidders must provide comprehensive monthly pricing, demonstrate ability to supply all necessary cleaning materials, and ensure personnel pass background checks and E-Verify requirements. The county reserves the right to accept, reject, or partially accept bids based on what is deemed most advantageous to the county.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though the bid documents suggest potential preference disadvantages for non-resident contractors from states offering bidding preferences to their own contractors. Each facility requires bidders to provide three professional references and demonstrate capability to perform comprehensive janitorial services. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the solicitation allows for additional services to be performed at an hourly rate, which will be pre-approved by the Maintenance Supervisor. The contract term is specifically for the calendar year 2026, running from January 1 through December 31, 2026. Contractors must be prepared to provide services after business hours, with timing varying by facility from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. The total square footage of facilities covered ranges from 1,141 to 29,635 square feet, with varying amounts of carpeted areas. The county will conduct qualification investigations to determine a bidder's capability to perform the required services effectively.
