Custodial Services

Macomb Township in Macomb County, Michigan is soliciting sealed proposals for comprehensive custodial services through Request for Proposals (RFP) #25-019, targeting daily cleaning services for the Recreation Center and Department of Public Works (DPW) buildings, with additional "As Requested" services for other township facilities. The procurement requires proposers to provide all necessary labor, materials, and equipment to perform cleaning services, with a mandatory pre-proposal walk-through scheduled for May 16, 2025, which will cover nine total locations. Proposals are due on June 4, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. local time, with an initial contract term of two years beginning September 11, 2025, and potential options for two additional two-year renewal periods. The evaluation criteria will heavily weight proposer qualifications and experience at 40%, followed by cost at 35%, and equipment capabilities at 25%. Required submission materials include a signature page, cover letter, implementation plan, equipment list, cost proposal forms, and professional references, with specific detailed cleaning requirements for various facility areas such as locker rooms, gymnasiums, offices, and common spaces.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. The township will supply basic paper supplies and garbage bags, while the awarded contractor must provide all cleaning chemicals, equipment, and supplies, and will be required to submit a performance bond equal to one month's payment. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the services suggests a potentially significant contract value covering multiple township facilities. The successful vendor will need to demonstrate robust cleaning protocols, professional staff qualifications, and sufficient equipment capabilities to meet the township's extensive cleaning requirements. Proposers should be prepared to showcase their ability to maintain high cleanliness standards across diverse municipal facility types, with a focus on comprehensive, professional custodial services that meet Macomb Township's operational needs.
