The procurement is for a three-year contract spanning January 2026 through December 2028, with services to be performed Monday through Friday between 4:00 pm and 3:00 am, excluding weekends and 16 specified holidays. The scope of work requires a comprehensive janitorial service that includes waste removal, floor cleaning, restroom maintenance, and cleaning of offices, conference rooms, and common areas, with detailed specifications outlined in Appendix A1 and A2 for each facility. A mandatory pre-bid walk-through is scheduled for Thursday, September 18, 2025, at 10:00 am, and sealed bids are due by 10:00 am on Tuesday, September 30, 2025. Bidders must complete a vendor questionnaire, provide references, and agree to background checks for on-site employees. Evaluation criteria will likely include the vendor's operational capacity, experience, ability to meet comprehensive cleaning requirements, and competitive pricing.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The township requires extensive insurance coverage, including worker's compensation, general liability, automobile liability, and protective liability with specific coverage limits. Vendors must demonstrate substantial operational capacity, including total number of full-time and part-time employees, on-site supervision details, and disclosure of any potential subcontractors. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the township reserves the right to increase or decrease service quantities and expects a firm price guarantee for the entire contract duration. The contract requires the successful bidder to provide all personnel, equipment, and materials necessary to maintain a clean, healthy, and safe work environment. The township is tax-exempt and will not authorize payment for services in advance, and bidders must disclose any historical failures to complete previously awarded work.
