Nassau Janitorial Services

The state and local contracting opportunity is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Florida Department of Health (DOH) to obtain competitive prices for janitorial services at the Nassau County Health Department (Nassau CHD). The ITB outlines the scope of services, which includes daily, weekly, monthly, and semi-annual cleaning requirements for four clinic locations in Nassau County. A non-mandatory site visit and pre-bid conference are scheduled, and bids are due by August 1, 2022. The contract term is for three years, with the possibility of three one-year renewals. Bidders must submit pricing for each clinic location, and the award will go to the responsive, responsible bidder offering the lowest grand total price. Bidders must also provide information on prior experience, non-collusion, scrutinized companies, and subcontractors. The DOH will not pay for services in advance and will apply financial consequences for failure to meet performance measures.

The ITB does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The current contract price is $34,392, and the estimated budget for this procurement is $50,000. No bond is required, and the floor scrubbing must be included in the bid price. The ITB also clarifies that the DOH will provide certain supplies, the contractor shall be responsible for training janitorial staff on the security system and providing photo identification, and all exterior doors shall be locked while work is being performed.
