Custodial Services

The government authority located in Ames, Iowa is seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive custodial services for its facility. The agency needs to maintain a clean, soil-free environment by removing dirt, dust, litter, and other contaminants from all exposed areas of furniture, fixtures, and surfaces. The scope of work covers horizontal surfaces such as floors, ceilings, desks, file cabinets, tables, work surfaces, windowsills, equipment stands, counters, benches, and appliances, as well as vertical areas including doors, windows, and walls. The requested services require vacuuming carpeted floors and entrance mats with commercially rated equipment to remove all visible soil and lift the pile, which includes removing any moisture and dirt underneath the mats. Hard surface floors must be swept or dust-mop cleaned into corners, edges, and under fixtures to achieve a uniform appearance free of streaks, stains, swirl marks, or detergent residue. The agency also requires spot cleaning of wall surfaces, particularly around high-traffic zones like door handles and light switches, using approved solutions that do not damage the wall finish. Bidders must perform all work onsite and must be located onshore within the United States. The agency is requesting proposals to establish a contract period of one year. Bidders must submit any questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 10, 2026. Final responses can be submitted digitally via email or through the designated online portal.
