Explanation

This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities (DPU) to modify a contract with K & M Kleening Service, Inc. to provide janitorial services for the following Division of Water (DOW) facilities: the Watershed buildings at Griggs and Hoover reservoirs, Hap Cremean Water Plant, Parsons Avenue Water Plant, DPU and Division of Power (DOP) offices, DOW offices, and DOW meter offices. Other sites may be added in the future.

The work to be performed under the contract includes cleaning services for office areas and industrial-type areas such as storerooms, stock rooms, construction trailers, areas adjacent to garages, kitchens, and break rooms. DOW shall furnish any and all cleaners, disinfectants, waxes, wax stripping materials, wastebasket liners, toilet seat liners, sanitation products and any other products required to provide the cleaning services.

The Department of Public Utilities solicited competitive bids for janitorial services in accordance with the relevant provisions of Chapter 329 of City Code (RFSQ 022039). One (1) bid was received and publicly opened on June 29, 2022. The sole bidder was K & M Kleening Service, Inc.

The original contract went into effect September 21, 2022. It was bid as a one (1) year contract with an option for three (3) additional years contingent on agreement between the City and the Contractor and approval of City Council. The original agreement was only for janitorial services at Division of Sewerage and Drainage (DOSD) facilities. The proposed Modification #1 will be for janitorial services at DOW facilities for 12 months. The first anticipated renewal will renew these DOW facilities for 5 additional months to align them with the DOSD facilities timeline.
