FY27 ACHD Custodial Services

Ada County Highway District (ACHD) is requesting proposals for comprehensive custodial services across four facilities in Ada County, Idaho under a single-year contract beginning October 1, 2026, with sealed proposals due September 9, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. Attendance at a mandatory pre-submission meeting and site walkthroughs on September 2, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. at ACHD Headquarters is a condition of proposal eligibility; failure to attend results in proposal rejection.

The scope encompasses daily Monday–Friday custodial services (commencing after 5:30 p.m., excluding ACHD holidays) across Meeker Headquarters (approximately 100,000 square feet), Franklin Campus/Traffic Operations Center (approximately 67,000 square feet across three buildings), Cloverdale Maintenance Campus (approximately 3,075 square feet across two buildings), and Adams Maintenance Campus (approximately 8,986 square feet across five buildings). Deliverables include restroom sanitation, floor cleaning and buffing, trash and recycling management, window cleaning, and facility-specific tasks such as soil laboratory epoxy floor buffing at Franklin. Proposers must provide fully burdened monthly pricing by individual location covering all labor, supervision, materials, equipment, transportation, overhead, and administrative costs, excluding only ACHD-furnished restroom consumables. A separate hourly rate for written authorized out-of-scope services is also required.

The successful contractor must furnish a 100% Performance Bond and a $100,000 Janitorial Services Bond, maintain Workers' Compensation insurance with statutory limits and Commercial General Liability coverage of $2,000,000, and comply with ACHD security and facility access requirements. Liquidated damages of $500 per calendar day apply for delays. The contract may be extended; ACHD retains the right to place multiple orders throughout the term.

Evaluation criteria: proposal cost (5%), firm history and experience (25%), firm qualifications and key personnel (35%), project understanding and approach (30%), and past performance with ACHD (5%). Questions are due by 4:00 p.m. on September 3, 2026. The contract agreement must be executed within 15 days of award.
