Executive Summary:
The Department of Public Infrastructure (SPI) requests that the Board authorize the Purchasing Agent to execute a one (1) year Blanket Purchase Order agreement, with ABM Building Onsite Services West, four (4) one-year options for renewal and any subsequent addenda that do not significantly change the scope of services and any addendums for additional services, such as enhanced cleaning, additional locations or disaster services which do not cumulatively exceed $500,000 per year for countywide janitorial services effective April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2028.
Discussion:
The County of Sonoma Public Infrastructure Purchasing Division maintains a contract for janitorial services for several departments, in geographically diverse locations comprising over two million square feet of County occupied facilities. This service agreement includes all tools and consumable materials necessary to provided janitorial services to various locations under schedules prescribed by departmental needs, throughout Sonoma County.
Last fiscal year, over $2.7 million was spent on services under the contract. The service agreement also requires use of Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) compliant green cleaning products. Designed by the U.S. Green Building Council, LEED verifies compliant cleaning products are efficient, cost-effective, and better for occupants and the environment.
In January 2023 the Purchasing Division solicited proposals from janitorial service providers. Three (3) service providers responded to the Request for Proposals.
Suppliers demonstrated their ability to provide the County with requested janitorial services, illustrating the services they can provide and a statement of costs for the scope of services requested in the solicitation. The selection process for awarding this Janitorial Service Agreement was conducted by a team of County employees from various departments, using comprehensive weighted criteria to make the final recommendation. Proposals were evaluated based on responsiveness of written proposals submitted, demonstrated ability to meet the defined functional requirements, quality of work as verified by references, and cost relative to the scope of services described in the solicitation. After thorough review of all proposals received it was determined that ABM Building Onsite Services West was the most responsive, responsible bidder. ABM’s pricing is projected to provide a savings of approximately 11% from actual costs for FY22-23. Though ABM elected not to increase their rates, savings is anticipated as enhanced COVID cleaning is phased out. Additionally, ABM Building Onsite Services West is a local service provider.
