Charles Reynolds Rest Area janitorial services

The Oregon Travel Information Council (TIC) is seeking janitorial services for the Charles Reynolds Rest Area located on Interstate 84 at Milepost 269.2 in Baker County, Oregon. This procurement is a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for comprehensive janitorial maintenance, which includes cleaning restrooms, emptying garbage cans, and maintaining walkways and parking areas. The initial contract term is 12 months, with potential for up to four additional one-year extensions. A mandatory pre-offer conference is scheduled for October 13, 2022, and all offers must be submitted by November 1, 2022, at 10:00 AM Pacific Daylight Savings Time. TIC will award the contract to the offeror receiving the highest combined score based on qualifications, experience, resources, and cost. Contractors are required to provide a supervisory employee, maintain adequate backup staffing, and meet specific performance standards. References and demonstrated ability to meet contract terms and conditions are essential for consideration.

The RFQ documents do not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. No incumbent vendor information is provided in the available documentation. Contractors will be expected to provide their own staffing, equipment, and resources to perform the janitorial services at the rest area. While a specific budget range is not detailed, the contract appears to be for ongoing maintenance services with potential annual renewal. The evaluation will focus on the contractor's ability to consistently maintain the rest area to TIC's specified standards, with cost being one of several factors in the selection process. Interested vendors must submit their proposals via email, fax, or regular mail, with no submissions accepted through Oregon Buys. The comprehensive nature of the contract suggests a commitment to maintaining a clean and functional rest area facility for travelers.
