PSP Troop E Girard Janitorial

The Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) is issuing an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for comprehensive janitorial services at the Troop E Girard facility located in Erie County. The contract requires providing all labor, equipment, and materials to perform janitorial services three days per week, with an estimated contract term from August 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, and four potential one-year renewal options. Prospective bidders must complete a mandatory site visit and obtain a signed Site Visit Form, which is a required submission with their bid. All bidders must undergo a federal fingerprint background check for staff performing services or being unescorted at the PSP facility. Key deliverables include routine cleaning activities such as emptying waste baskets, cleaning floors, walls, and fixtures, and maintaining various floor surfaces. The bid submission deadline is June 28, 2023, and all bids must be submitted exclusively through the PA Supplier Portal, with no alternative submission methods accepted. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the Commonwealth reserving the right to award by line item if determined to be in its best interest.

The solicitation documents do not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises. The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors who can meet the specified requirements, including the mandatory site visit and background check provisions. No information is provided about an incumbent contractor or existing technological infrastructure requiring integration. The bid specifications include a Cost Matrix for vendors to complete, which suggests the contract will be a fixed-price arrangement with defined monthly rates. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, the contract encompasses janitorial services for a state police facility, implying a professional services contract with potential annual value likely in the moderate to low five-figure range. Vendors must complete all required documentation, including the Worker Protection and Investment Certification Form, which requires compliance with various Pennsylvania labor and workplace safety laws.
