Emergency Notice for Janitorial Services

The emergency purchase is needed to maintain essential janitorial services at FSC‑C. ISP’s attempts to procure these services through a small purchase and later an IFB were unsuccessful due to bids exceeding thresholds, end‑of‑year resource constraints, and the need to revise the IFB based on detailed vendor questions. The revised IFB will take at least 1.5 months to complete, leaving a service gap.

Janitorial services for 3 months for the 88,000 square foot forensic lab, with approximately 2,700 square feet of restrooms and 12,000 square feet of public space and hallway.
