Janitorial Services

The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) Engineering Division is requesting proposals for janitorial services at its Headquarters Building in Raleigh under RFP 17-RQ294811JP-WRC, with proposals due October 23, 2026, at 2:00 PM ET and a mandatory pre-proposal site visit on October 7 at 10:00 AM (pre-registration by September 30). This is an agency-specific contract procurement.

The scope encompasses daily general cleaning during daytime (12:00 PM–5:00 PM ET) and evening (5:00 PM–11:00 PM ET) hours, Monday through Friday, plus weekly, monthly, and quarterly/semi-annual major maintenance including floor maintenance, restroom deep cleaning, and interior glass cleaning. The 60,000 net square-foot building spans six floors with 13 restrooms, 4 elevators, 5 kitchen areas, approximately 53,600 square feet of carpeted surfaces, and 6,400 square feet of hard floors. Staffing requirements are no more than two day porters and no fewer than two evening staff members. Day-to-day cleaning duties must be performed by vendor employees only—no subcontractors. All personnel must reside within 30 minutes of the facility, hold state-issued identification badges, and pass criminal background checks within 90 days of contract execution, with disqualification for felony convictions and violent offenses. Vendors must demonstrate experience cleaning buildings of at least 45,000 square feet within the past three years and be North Carolina registered vendors in good standing with eVP numbers; registration with the North Carolina Secretary of State is required within 10 business days of award.

The contract term is one year from January 1, 2027, or later, with optional renewals for up to two additional one-year terms upon 30 days' written notice. Evaluation uses a one-step process: work plan (40 points), technical qualifications including vendor experience and past performance (20 points), and price (40 points). Pricing must include total annual cost for scheduled general cleaning plus 20 hours of emergency/special cleanup services at hourly rates in Attachment A.
