SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TO FURNISH JANITORIAL
MAINTENANCE SERVICES, SPECIFICATION NO. 91274
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve the specifications for Janitorial Maintenance Services, Spec. No. 91274
2. Authorize staff to distribute the Request for Proposals
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement if contract prices are within the available
annual budget of $249,500 for janitorial services.
DISCUSSION
Background
As part of doing business, the City contracts with private vendors and businesses for a variety of
services, including Building Janitorial work. Janitorial services were identified several years ago
as an area where it is cost effective to use contract services instead of regular staff.
Current Request for Proposals
The existing contract for janitorial maintenance services expires on June 30, 2014. Staff
recommends approval to advertise and distribute a Request for Proposals (RFP) to furnish
janitorial maintenance services for the City of San Luis Obispo. Staff also recommends Council
authorization of the City Manager to award a contract if within approved budget amounts. This
RFP covers contract janitorial maintenance services from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2018 at the
following locations:
Public Safety Offices: Recreation Facilities:
Police Station Jack House Service Building and Restrooms
Police Station Annex Meadow Park Multi-Purpose Building
Police Downtown Office Ludwick Community Center
Emergency Communication Center Senior Center
Fire Station One Offices City County Library Community Rooms
Parking Division Facilities: Utilities Department Facilities:
Parking Offices Utilities Office
General Offices:
City Hall Offices

The Request for Proposals Process
The City used a strictly low bid approach in the 1990s for its service contracts. Using this
approach for janitorial maintenance service contracts created problems with low bidders cutting
corners and continually requesting price adjustments to make ends meet. The consequences
were marginal, often unacceptable work, and strained relations between the City representatives
and the contractor. Larger companies, providing higher quality and more comprehensive
services, did not submit bids.
To remedy this situation, the City switched to issuing an RFP that called for proposing firms to
submit a qualification proposal, including general information, references, and insurance
information, and a separate cost proposal.
The City’s purchasing policy designates maintenance services as a General Purchase and defines
the requirements for purchase based on the estimated dollar value of the services. The Policy
requires issuance of a formal Bid or RFP document approved by the City Council for services
with a cost greater than $100,000. Service contracts do not have an identified Central
Purchasing authority under the Policy, and so each department completes service contracts as
needed to facilitate delivery of services.
The City’s Charter does not address the purchase of maintenance services, focusing instead on
purchases relating to public projects. Building janitorial services that are not a component of a
contracted public works project are not considered a public project under the Public Contract
Code by definition in section 1101 and, more specifically in section 22002(c)(4). Janitorial
services of this kind are also specifically excepted from the definition of maintenance work
subject to prevailing wage requirements under the Section 16000 of Title 8 of the California
Code of Regulations. The City’s Municipal Code, sections 3.24.190 and 3.24.210, specify award
to the lowest responsible bidder, where, in addition to the bid or quotation price, the character,
integrity, reputation, judgment, experience and efficiency of the bidder, and its ability to perform
the services required, within the time specified, are used as criteria for determining the lowest
responsible bid or quotation. The Municipal Code specifies that this evaluation may include an
analysis of previous work performed for the City. The City’s RFP document is a good tool to
obtain, and make decisions regarding these characteristics of the proposing firms, in addition to
evaluating cost proposals. When staff recommends award to other than a low bidder, these
elements of evaluation are discussed and the recommendation justified.
The RFP calls for the proposing firms to submit qualifications, including general information,
proposed work schedule, references, and insurance information, in addition to a cost proposal.
The review team will look at and rank all the proposals based on experience, expertise, approach
to completing the work, the company’s understanding of the work scope, and the proposed
compensation before finalizing a recommendation for awarding contracts.
This process has been used successfully over the last thirteen years for several operations and
maintenance contracts, such as park restroom cleaning, landscape maintenance, parking lot
cleaning, parking meter coin collection, parking garage security services, sidewalk steam
cleaning, uniform and linen services, and transit service, just to name a few. This approach has
attracted proposals from well-established companies and resulted in excellent quality service at
reasonable prices.

Janitorial Maintenance Services Page 3
The issuance and processing of the RFP is managed by the Engineering and Maintenance
Division of Public Works. In addition, the Parking Services Division of Public Works and the
Utilities Department are active participants in the selection of the contractors and provide
oversight and management of the work.
The contract includes a provision for annual cost increases based on changes in the consumer
price index. The City can terminate the contract at any time or make service level adjustments
based on the City’s satisfaction with the contractor or its fiscal situation.
Longer Contract Term
Most Public Works operations and maintenance contracts have an initial term of four years with
an option to extend for another two years if service is satisfactory. Extending the contract term
to the full 6 years has the following advantages:
1. It allows contractors to recover startup and capital costs over a longer period.
Consequently, contract prices can be lower.
2. It makes budgeting for contract costs more predictable because contract prices remain
stable.
3. It eliminates frequent and time-consuming contract solicitations.
4. It reduces disruption that occurs when there is a change in contractor. The transition
period for such a change usually requires temporary but intensive supervision from
Public Works employees while the new contractor becomes comfortable with the work.
Regularly Recurring vs. Routine Tasks of Varying Frequency
The specification describes two types of work: 1) regularly scheduled tasks that make up the
ongoing day-to-day housekeeping workload, and 2) routine tasks that are recurring, but are
performed on a less regular schedule, as needed. These routine tasks include window washing,
high dusting, carpet extraction, carpet bonnet-cleaning, hard floor scrubbing and recoating, and
spot cleaning folding tables and stacking chairs. The price proposal in the specification includes
a monthly price for the regularly scheduled tasks at each location and unit prices for the routine
tasks at each location. In this way, the City has the flexibility to request a routine task such as
carpet extraction only when it appears necessary. In budgeting for these routine tasks, a certain
frequency at each location is assumed; however, flexibility is retained because these tasks, while
required for ongoing upkeep, have no specified schedule.
CONCURRENCES
Review by stakeholders of alternate award criteria resulted in concurrences from Parks and
Recreation, Police, Fire, and Utilities Departments. The City Attorney and the Director of
Finance & Information Technology have previously reviewed and concurred with the alternative
award criteria being used.
The Matrix Consulting Group assessment for the Public Works Department noted that the
Facility Maintenance Division uses the right balance of contractors and in-house staff, and
overall, felt the Division has an effective mix of contractors and in-house staff.

C. Insurance Certificate. Each proposal must include a certificate of insurance showing:
1. The insurance carrier and its A.M. Best rating
2. Scope of coverage and limits

The purpose of this submittal is to generally assess the adequacy of the proposer’s insurance coverage
during proposal evaluation. As discussed under paragraph K below, endorsements are not required
until contract award. The City’s insurance requirements are detailed in Section VI.
D. Price Proposal Figures. The monthly prices and unit prices listed on the Price Proposal form must
be entered in figures in the spaces provided on the form. If the monthly prices and the amounts listed

representing the proposer's intention, and the total of monthly prices will be corrected to conform to
the monthly prices listed.
E. Proposal Withdrawal and Opening. A proposer may withdraw its proposal without prejudice prior
to the time specified for the proposal opening, by submitting a written request to the Director of

No proposal received after the time specified or at any place other than that stated in the "Request for
Proposals" will be considered.
F. Submittal of One Proposal Only. No individual or business entity of any kind shall be allowed to
make, file, or be interested in more than one proposal, except an alternative proposal when
specifically requested. However, an individual or business entity that has submitted a sub-proposal to
a proposer submitting a proposal, or who has quoted prices on materials to such proposer, is not
thereby disqualified from submitting a sub-proposal or from quoting prices to other proposers
submitting proposals.
G. Communications. All timely requests for information submitted in writing will receive a written
response from the City. Telephone communications with City staff are not encouraged, but will be
permitted. However, any such oral communication shall not be binding on the City.

days for examination and comparison. The City also reserves the right to waive non-substantial
irregularities in any proposal, to reject any or all proposals, to reject or delete one part of a proposal

V. Work Delays. Should the Contractor be obstructed or delayed in the work required to be done in this
specification by changes in the work or by any default, act, or omission of the City, or by strikes, fire,
earthquake, or any other Act of God, or by the inability to obtain materials, equipment, or labor due to
federal government restrictions arising out of defense or war programs, then the time of completion
may, at the City's sole option, be extended for such periods as may be agreed upon by the City and the
Contractor. In the event that there is insufficient time to grant such extensions prior to the completion
date of the contract, the City may, at the time of acceptance of the work, waive liquidated damages
that may have accrued for failure to complete on time, due to any of the above, after hearing evidence
as to the reasons for such delay, and making a finding as to the causes of same.

acceptance by the City of the materials, supplies, equipment, or services provided by the Contractor

materials used by the Contractor in preparing its invoices to the City as a condition precedent to any
payment to the Contractor.

Contractor certifies that no one who has or will have any financial interest in performing this work is

faithfully abiding by any term or condition contained herein, the City may notify the Contractor in
writing of such defect or failure to perform. This notice must give the Contractor a ten calendar day
notice of time thereafter in which to perform said work or cure the deficiency.
If the Contractor has not performed the work or cured the deficiency within the ten days specified in
the notice, such shall constitute a breach of the contract and the City may terminate the contract
immediately by written notice to the Contractor to said effect. Thereafter, neither party shall have
any further duties, obligations, responsibilities, or rights under the contract except, however, any and
all obligations of the Contractor's surety shall remain in full force and effect, and shall not be
extinguished, reduced, or in any manner waived by the termination thereof.
In said event, the Contractor shall be entitled to the reasonable value of its services performed from
the beginning date in which the breach occurs up to the day it received the City's Notice of

"Reasonable value" includes fees or charges for goods or services as of the last milestone or task
satisfactorily delivered or completed by the Contractor as may be set forth in the Agreement payment
schedule; compensation for any other work, services or goods performed or provided by the
Contractor shall be based solely on the City's assessment of the value of the work-in-progress in
completing the overall workscope.
The City reserves the right to delay any such payment until completion or confirmed abandonment of
the project, as may be determined in the City's sole discretion, so as to permit a full and complete
accounting of costs. In no event, however, shall the Contractor be entitled to receive in excess of the
compensation quoted in its proposal.

terminate the agreement with 30 calendar days written notice.

Section D
SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
A. Presubmittal Meeting. A presubmittal meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, April 30,
2014 at the City's Corporation Yard, 25 Prado Road, San Luis Obispo, California. The purposes of
this meeting will be to 1) answer any questions that prospective proposers may have about this
specification and 2) schedule prospective proposers for a tour of work locations as described in
paragraph B below. A prospective proposer must attend this meeting in order to submit a proposal.
B. Tour of Work Locations. The City will conduct tours of the work locations at 10:00 a.m. and 3:00
p.m. on Thursday, May 1, 2014, starting at the City’s Corporation Yard, 25 Prado Road, San Luis
Obispo, California. The purpose of this tour will be to allow prospective proposers to examine the
work locations and ask additional questions about the work to be performed. A prospective proposer
must attend one of these tours in order to submit a proposal.
C. Proposal Evaluation and Contractor Selection. Proposals will be evaluated by a review committee
using the following three-phase review, selection, and contract award process:
Phase 1 – Proposal Review
The review committee will review the general proposal forms submitted (Information about the
Proposer, References, Statement of Past Contract Disqualifications, and Insurance Certificate). Three
to five proposers will be selected for follow-up interviews based on 1) quality, clarity and
responsiveness of the proposal 2) competence and qualifications necessary for successfully
performing the work and 3) recent experience in successfully performing similar services.
Phase 2 – Interviews and Contractor Selection
Selected proposers will be interviewed by the review committee. The purposes of this interview will
be to 1) evaluate communication and interpersonal skills and 2) clarify and resolve any questions and
issues about the proposal. Based on results of the interviews, the review committee will rank the
proposers based on qualifications.
Phase 3 – Contract Award Recommendation
After ranking the proposers based on qualifications, the review committee will review the submitted
price proposals for the ranked proposers. The review committee will then use this price information
to further evaluate the proposals and select the best proposer based on a combination of qualifications
and price. If the price proposal for the selected proposer is not within the range of acceptable prices,
the review committee will negotiate with the selected proposer to establish an acceptable price. If
negotiations are unsuccessful, the review committee will repeat the process with the next best
proposer until an acceptable price can be established and the review committee can recommend that a
contract be awarded.
D. Labor Actions. In the event that the successful proposer is experiencing a labor action at the time of
contract award (or if its suppliers or subcontractors are experiencing such a labor action), the City
reserves the right to declare said proposer is no longer the best proposer and to accept the next best
proposal from a proposer that is not experiencing a labor action, and to declare it to be the best
proposer.
E. Failure to Accept Contract. The following will occur if the proposer to whom the award is made
(the Contractor) fails to enter into the contract: the award will be annulled and an award may be
made to the next best proposer which shall fulfill every stipulation as if it were the party to whom the
first award was made.
C3 - 34
29
F. Agreement Term. The term of the Agreement for this specification shall be from July 1, 2014 to
June 30, 2018. If service is satisfactory, the City may extend the term until June 30, 2020 by written
notification to the Contractor.
G. Compensation Adjustment. Original contract prices shall remain in effect through June 30, 2015.
Beginning in the year 2015, on July 1 of each year contract prices shall be increased by a percentage
equal to the percentage increase in the U.S. Consumer Price Index/All Urban Consumers (CPI-U)
from March in the previous year to March in the year of adjustment.
Example: The original contract price is $1,000 per month. This price remains in effect until June 30,
2015. The Consumer Price Index/All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increases by 2.5 percent between
March 2014 and March 2015. On July 1, 2015 the contract price increases by 2.5 percent from
$1,000 per month to $1,025 per month. The new contract price applies to work completed after July
1, 2015. This same process repeats the following year.
H. Contractor Invoices. The Contractor shall deliver a monthly invoice to the City that clearly
identifies the name of the contract and the contract specification number.
I. City Representative. The City's representative for all issues regarding the agreement for this
specification shall be the representative listed for each location in Section II.
J. Workhours. The Contractor shall perform the specified work during the workhours listed in Section
II for each location. The Contractor shall not perform any of the specified work outside of these
workhours without the City representative's prior written consent. The Contractor shall not start work
at a location until all scheduled activities or events are completed at that location.
K. Contractor's Responsibility for Damage. The Contractor shall replace or repair City property lost
or damaged as a result of the Contractor's actions or negligence. The Contractor shall not be
responsible for loss or damage caused by theft and vandalism by third parties, unless the theft or
damage results from the Contractor's negligence.
L. Security of Work Locations. For work locations secured by locks, the City shall provide the
Contractor with the required keys or combinations. The Contractor shall properly secure these
locations when specified work is completed and shall replace or repair City property lost or damaged
when locks are not properly set.
M. Daily Inspections and Correction of Deficiencies. On each day that tasks are scheduled, a City
employee may inspect each location to ensure that scheduled tasks have been completed. If any tasks
have not been completed, that employee shall report the deficiency to the City representative, who
shall in turn report the deficiency by e-mail to the Contractor before 9:00 a.m. on the day the
deficiency occurred. If the Contractor does not return and perform the work before 12:00 noon on the
day the deficiency occurred and does not confirm with the City representative that the deficiency has
been corrected, it shall forfeit five percent of the monthly price for the location where the deficiency
occurred. The City will deduct such a forfeiture from its next payment.
N. Approval of Materials. The Contractor shall not use any material for the specified work without the
City's prior written approval of that material. If requested, the Contractor shall furnish to the City
without charge samples of materials for examination and testing.
O. Toxic and Hazardous Materials. The Contractor shall furnish to the City a list of all materials used
for the specified work that are regulated by law as toxic or hazardous. With this list the Contractor
shall include and maintain a Material Safety Data Sheet for each toxic or hazardous material at each
site. The Contractor shall train its employees in the proper handling of any toxic or hazardous
materials.
P. Storage and Handling of Materials and Equipment. The Contractor shall store materials or
equipment on City property only in areas approved by the City representative.
C3 - 35
30
Q. Qualifications and Conduct of the Contractor's Employees. The Contractor's employees shall be
competent and qualified to perform the specified work and shall perform the specified work in an
orderly manner. All staff employed in the work shall wear a shirt or jacket clearly identifying the
Contractor’s company. If the City representative advises the Contractor that an employee is
incompetent, unqualified, or disorderly, the Contractor shall remove that employee from the specified
work for the duration of the agreement. When performing the specified work the Contractor's
employees shall not bring to the work locations any pets, any children, or any persons not employed
under the agreement.
Because of sensitive information at the Police Station, the Police Station Annex, and the Police
Downtown Office, the City must conduct a background investigation on any of the Contractor’s
employees who may work at these locations. This background investigation may include, but not be
limited to, inquiries to the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the
California Department of Motor Vehicles. It may also entail contacting previous employers and
soliciting character references. A record on file with any of these agencies and organizations will not
necessarily disqualify the Contractor's employee from working at these locations.
R. Shutdowns at Work Locations. The City may periodically shut down a work location for scheduled
or unscheduled repairs and maintenance. When this situation occurs, the City shall give the
Contractor 28 days notice. The Contractor shall cooperate with the City in temporarily discontinuing
service or reassigning janitorial employees to perform janitorial service work at other City locations
during these shutdowns.
S. Accuracy of the Specification. This specification is believed by the City to be accurate and to
contain no affirmative misrepresentation nor any concealment of fact. In preparing its proposal, the
proposer and all subcontractors named in its proposal shall bear sole responsibility for proposal
preparation errors resulting from any misstatements or omissions in this specification which could
easily have been ascertained by examining either the project site or accurate data in the City's
possession. Although the effect of ambiguities or defects in this specification will be as determined
by law, any patent ambiguity or defect shall give rise to a duty of the proposer to inquire prior to
proposal submittal. Failure to so inquire shall cause any such ambiguity or defect to be construed
against the proposer. An ambiguity or defect shall be considered patent if it is of such a nature that
the proposer, assuming reasonable skill, ability, and diligence on its part, knew or should have known
of the existence of the ambiguity or defect. Furthermore, failure of the proposer or subcontractors to
notify City in writing of specification defects or ambiguities prior to proposal submittal shall waive
any right to assert said defects or ambiguities subsequent to submittal of the proposal.
To the extent that this specification constitutes a performance specification, the City shall not be
liable for costs incurred by the successful proposer to achieve the project’s objective or standard
beyond the amounts provided therefor in the proposal.
In the event that, after awarding the contract, any dispute arises as a result of any actual or alleged
ambiguity or defect in this specification, or any other matter whatsoever, the Contractor shall
immediately notify the City in writing, and the Contractor and all subcontractors shall continue to
perform, irrespective of whether or not the ambiguity or defect is major, material, minor or trivial,
and irrespective of whether or not a change order, time extension, or additional compensation has
been granted by City. Failure to provide the hereinbefore described written notice within one (1)
working day of the Contractor's becoming aware of the facts giving rise to the dispute shall constitute
a waiver of the right to assert the causative role of the defect or ambiguity in this specification
concerning the dispute.
