House Cleaning Service at TSTC in Marshall

Texas State Technical College (TSTC) has issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for comprehensive house cleaning services targeting up to 54 apartment units at their Marshall campus location. The solicitation is structured as an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a one-year term and potential one-year extension option. Vendors are required to provide deep cleaning services during scheduled semester turnovers and on an as-needed basis throughout the academic year. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for February 11, 2025, at 10:00 AM CST in Hutto, TX, Room C115, and failure to attend will result in automatic disqualification. The procurement timeline indicates the RFP opens February 3, 2025, at 3:00 PM CST and closes February 18, 2025, at 2:00 PM CST. Evaluation criteria will focus on responsiveness to terms and conditions, ability to meet specifications, and vendor references. Pricing must remain fixed for the first contract year, with any potential renewal period increases requiring explicit TSTC approval.

While no specific Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) participation is initially mandated, suppliers must submit a HUB Subcontracting Plan if any awarded project exceeds $100,000. TSTC will accept multiple awards to firms demonstrating the best overall value. Payment will be processed through Electronic Funds Transfers, including ACH, Wire Transfer, Virtual Card, and Check methods. Suppliers will be required to submit a Progress Assessment Report (PAR) with each invoice when subcontracting is involved, and must provide separate invoices for each service location. The college has established technical support through JAGGAER's help desk at 1-800-233-1121 to assist vendors with system registration and bid submission. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the contract covers cleaning services for 54 apartment units, suggesting a moderate-sized procurement opportunity for qualified cleaning service providers.
