Janitorial Svc D3

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Division of Purchases is seeking a qualified contractor to provide comprehensive janitorial services for the Department of Transportation District 3 Office located at 900 Morgantown Road in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The solicitation requires janitorial services for a 14,400 square foot facility, including 8 bathrooms and common spaces, to be performed five nights per week after 3:30 pm. The initial contract period will run from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2026, with options for four additional one-year renewals. Bidders must complete a mandatory site visit prior to submitting their proposal and submit electronic bids through the Kentucky Vendor Self Service system by August 8, 2025, at 1:30 pm. The contract will be awarded using a best value ranking approach, with 95 points allocated to pricing and 5 points to the vendor's response. Required qualifications include a minimum of 24 months in business, with additional points awarded for up to 120 months of business experience. Cleaning tasks will include daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and semi-annual activities such as trash collection, floor cleaning, window washing, and carpet extraction.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contractor must maintain general liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence and Kentucky workers' compensation insurance. The successful bidder will be responsible for providing all necessary cleaning equipment and supplies, with the agency providing consumable items like paper towels and toilet paper. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contractor will need to integrate with the existing facility infrastructure and meet the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's specific cleaning and maintenance standards. The document does not specify a precise budget range or award value, but the monthly service scope suggests a moderate-sized contract for ongoing janitorial services. Potential bidders should carefully review the solicitation documents, particularly the "How to Submit an Online Response" guide, which provides detailed instructions for navigating the Kentucky Vendor Self Service system and completing the electronic bid submission process.
