Janitorial services

Midlands Technical College is requesting proposals for janitorial services across eight campuses under a best value bid solicitation, with proposals due June 23, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. and mandatory site visits scheduled for June 9, 11, and 12. The contract begins July 1, 2026 for an initial one-year term with four optional one-year renewals.

The scope encompasses daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual cleaning services for the Airport, Beltline, Northeast, Cornerstone, Harbison, and Batesburg-Leesville campuses, plus Northlake Center (holiday cleaning only), Lexington Medical Center, and the DHL Building. The College provides all cleaning supplies and equipment; the contractor must supply W-2 employees in uniforms, maintain workers' compensation and general liability insurance with $1 million limits, and perform background checks and drug screening.

Mandatory qualifications require a minimum of ten years' experience in commercial cleaning and documented provision of staffing services for a similar-sized facility within the past five years with at least 35 employees assigned to a single client. Evaluation criteria are cost (60%), staffing plan/operations/policies (25%), qualifications (10%), and company profile (5%). Offerors submit separate technical and price proposals online; the price proposal uses a provided spreadsheet specifying cost per square foot and costs for Years 1–5. Pricing information may not be disclosed prior to award.

A non-mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for June 16, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. via Microsoft Teams. Questions are due June 17, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Award notification is expected July 15, 2026. Submission and additional details are available at www.procurement.sc.gov.
