HomeMy WebLinkAboutCustodial Contracts for City Owned Buildings COMMISSION MEMORANDUM REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: James Goehrung, Director of Facility Services Anna Rosenberry, Finance Director Chuck Winn, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Requested Documentation on the Contract Award For Cleaning Services of City Owned Buildings. MEETING DATE: August 3, 2009 RECOMMENDATION: 1. Consider a motion to take from the table the Custodial Contracts for City Owned Building for Fiscal Year 2009-2010. 2. Review information supplied and provide direction to staff regarding contracted janitorial services, including possible contract award for cleaning services of city owned buildings to Dust Bunnies. 3. Consider acting upon the motion from July 27, 2009: “It was moved by Cr. Rupp, seconded by Becker to award the 2009-2010 Custodial Contract for City owned Buildings as outlined in the staff report”. BACKGROUND: Based on the direction given by the Commission, we are providing additional background information on the extension of the janitorial contracts for city owned buildings and the comparative costs of providing janitorial services by hiring city employees (in- house janitorial.) The following attachments are included for your review: o Copy of the Bid Tab from the original bid opening of July 2, 2008. o General Conditions for the contract o Bid specifications for the contract o Attachment A - Frequency and work schedule for City Hall o Attachment A - Frequency and work schedule for City Hall Annex o Attachment A - Frequency and work schedule for Bozeman Public Library 174 o Attachment A - Frequency and work schedule for Bozeman Professional Building o Attachment A - Frequency and work schedule for City Shop Complex o Attachment B- Questionnaire for Contractors o Summary of square footage and cleaning costs per building o Custodial Services Comparison Current Contracts: The contract for janitorial work at the Shops Complex was awarded to Montana Building Maintenance in 2007. This would be the second year that the contract is extended. Because of this, the janitorial services at the shops were not bid in 2008. MT Building Maintenance maintained the contract because their service was acceptable when we bid in 2008. We rebid the rest of the city buildings because we felt we were getting a low quality of service from the contractor at the time. When the bulk of the buildings (City Hall, Professional Building, Library, Water Treatment Plant, City Hall Annex) were bid in 2008, there were 8 vendors that participated in the building walk-through. By the bid deadline, we had three contractors provide bids for janitorial services, with one contractor not providing a bid on the Library (original bid tab sheet attached.) The high bid was for a total of $246,000 and did NOT include cleaning the Library. The lowest bid was made by Dust Bunnies for a total of $140,500. It was revised for the additional square footage of the new City Hall building after we relocated in September 2008, per the original contract provisions. This award would be the first extension of the previously awarded contracts, as allowed by provisions of the contract. The current vendor is providing a level of service that meets and often time exceeds the frequency and work schedule defined for the building. The current cleaning schedule for most buildings is 5 days a week. The Library is cleaned 7 days a week for 9 months of the year, and 6 days a week for 3 months of the year. The Library is also the largest and most heavily used municipal buildings. Building service schedules are attached. According to Library records, 410,235 people used the Library building last year. That number represents an increase of 7.26% over the previous year and averages 1,210 people per day. On one particular day 2,000 people used the building. In addition to the overhead costs listed in the vendor provided summary, they must meet the state prevailing wage rate of $12.68, and benefits of $3.36; and bond yearly, which costs approximately $4,500 each year. The specification of the contract requires the vendor to be bonded, insured, meet the state wage rates, and provide for notification of any change in employees so that background checks can be conducted. There has been very little employee turnover with our primary contractor. As indicated in the "Summary of Square Footage and Cleaning Costs per Building", the City pays between $1.39 and $2.35 per square foot cleaned per year. The current contracts average $1.90 per square foot per year. By comparison, Gallatin County will be paying $2.05 per square foot for their janitorial services contract for the upcoming fiscal year. Without a copy of their exact scope of services, however, it is impossible to make an exact comparison. 175 Comparison to In-House Janitorial Service: We have prepared two comparisons between the contract renewal rates and in-house janitorial costs. The primary cost component in both comparisons is labor; between 80-85% of the costs pertain to wages and benefits of employees. Both comparisons assume that in-house positions would be filled at the entry wage for current Teamster City Service Workers, and that staff would travel between facilities utilizing a retired Police Department vehicle. Neither comparisons include "administrative costs" such as supervisor time and establishment of standard operating procedures for staff, or assume that any of the new staff would be assigned lead-worker status. o The first comparison (in orange, "Custodial Services Comparison") shows that, assuming the current estimated number of hours spent at each facility, the City would need to spend approximately $258,000 each year for in-house janitorial work. This is $96,700 more than the current contract prices totaling $160,704. o The second comparison (in green, "Custodial Services Comparison") seeks to find the point at which we would realize some savings from in-house janitorial services. If the number of hours (or labor costs) were reduced by 45%, the City's total costs would be approximately $150,000/year. This would be a savings of $10,300 over the current contract prices. In this case, the frequency and level of cleaning at each building would change significantly over the current level of service. Under this scenario, we would seek to maintain the cleaning levels of public areas as best we could and reduced cleaning in office and "staff only" areas. Montana State University allocates one staff member for each 21,700 to 27,000 square feet of building to be serviced. The bulk of their daily cleaning is classroom areas, hallways, and bathrooms. Offices are cleaned on a less frequent basis. Most areas are hard surface floors. With total square footage to be cleaned of 84,528, it is estimated that the city would need between 3.1 and 3.9 staff members based on this assumption. Our first comparison comes close to this number, at 4.38 staff, after considering coverage for accrued vacation and sick time of 216 hours/year. Our second comparison, at 2.41 FTE's would equal approximately 35,000 square feet of building to be serviced by each employee. The addition of 2-4 in-house janitorial employees will, at a minimum, double the staff of our existing Facilities Maintenance department. Supervision of these staff, especially when working night shifts, will require additional duties for the Facilities Director. FISCAL EFFECTS: There are numerous possible fiscal effects, depending on direction given. If the Commission wishes to reduce the level of service under the contract, staff recommends that the public service levels be maintained and levels of service be reduced in office and "staff only" areas. It would be easiest if an acceptable dollar amount was specified by the Commission and staff be directed to negotiate with the contractors. If the Commission wishes to establish in-house janitorial services, we estimate that 2 to 3 months lead-time would be necessary to hire and train staff. The estimated cost savings from a reduced level of service by in-house staff are detailed above. 176 ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.

Sweeping of asphalt tile, vinyl tile, rubber tile or ceramic tile floors must be accomplished in accordance with the frequency schedule. Care must be taken during these processes to ensure that all floor areas are cleaned including, but not limited to, under desks, and that the dirt is simply not transferred to corners. Any furniture, chairs, waste baskets, etc., moved to accommodate these processes will be returned to their original locations. In most buildings high traffic carpet areas are cleaned quarterly. The schedule will be coordinated with the Contractor so that other cleaning activities can still occur. 2.2 Damp Mopping: Floors, including stairways and landings will be damp mopped to remove dirt that remains on the floor surface and cannot be removed by sweeping or dust mopping. Damp mopping will not begin until after the floor has been thoroughly swept and loose soil has been removed. If there are any employees or members of the public in the building at the time of damp mopping, the appropriate "Caution, Wet Floor" signs shall be provided by the Contractor and posted until the floor is dry. 2.3 Light Waxing: Heavy traffic floor areas (entrances, lobbies, corridors, etc.) and those floors 187 SPECS - Page 3 of 5 subject to excessive wear, will receive a very light coat or application of wax and be buffed to a uniform sheen at least once a month, and more frequently if determined necessary. Any wax residue on wall bases or unmovable furniture will be removed. This process is to be completed in conjunction with buffing. 2.4 Scrubbing: A floor that is satisfactory or acceptably scrubbed is without embedded dirt, cleaning solution, film, stains, marks or water. Floors, except restrooms, will be scrubbed only when they cannot be cleaned satisfactorily by damp mopping. 2.5 Wax Removal: Wax removal will be accomplished by applying a stripping or wax removing solution in warm water over the entire floor area exactly as recommended by the manufacturer of the product, to loosen embedded dirt and wax. Residue along floor edges near wall base, immovable furniture, equipment and in corners will be removed manually. 2.6 Waxing and Buffing: As soon as the wax removal has been satisfactorily accomplished, the floor will be waxed and buffed. A satisfactory or acceptable floor finish has a thin, even coating of wax. Floor will be clean and bright, under furniture as well as in other areas. Do not apply wax within six inches from walls or legs or bases of unmovable furniture. 3.0 Dusting and Miscellaneous Cleaning A satisfactory or acceptably dusted surface is free of all dust, dust streaks, lint, cobwebs, dirt, or oily streaks. The dust must be removed completely, not scattered around. 3.1 Low Dusting: Includes surfaces less than six feet from the floor, which may include, but may not be limited to, ledges, support braces, window sills, doors, stair rails, chair rails, base boards. Typewriters, computers, business machines, consoles, plotting boards and equipment of similar nature will not be dusted. No desks are to be included in individual offices, except by specific request, but reception areas, common area tables and desks, (such as those in the library or reading areas in various city buildings), will be dusting on the regular schedule. 3.2 High Dusting: High dusting includes areas over windows and doors, overhead pipes, exposed ducts, ceilings and walls which are six feet or more from the floor. High dusting will be performed before floors are cleaned and before low dusting is undertaken. 3.3 Dusting Heating and Air Conditioning Equipment: All accessible portions of unit heaters, air conditioning grills, convectors, diffusers, fans, ceiling vents and radiators will be dusted or vacuumed. If the grills cannot be cleaned by dusting or vacuuming, they shall be removed and washed. 3.4 Entryway and Vestibules: Areas around all exterior entryway doors will be swept free of all gravel, dirt, sand, sticks, and debris for a minimum of 10 feet from the entrance door in order to minimize the amount of material tracked into the building. The Contractor will not be responsible for the removal of snow or ice. 4.0 Restrooms 188 SPECS - Page 4 of 5 Acceptably clean restrooms have a clean and bright appearance and no objectionable odors. Disinfectant shall be used on all surfaces and fixtures on a daily basis. 4.1 Restroom Floor Cleaning: Restroom floors will be (if concrete, tile, or vinyl) swept and scrubbed once a day. The immediate areas around urinals will be well scrubbed, using an all purpose detergent with a small amount of disinfectant. This process will result in thorough removal of soiling with no residue left in joints, crevices or corners. 4.2 Toilets: When cleaning the bowls, wash and wipe bowl inside and out. If deposits are difficult to remove, use appropriate cleaning methods to remove deposits. Wash seat, top and bottom with detergent solution, and wipe dry. Wipe tank and cover or flush mechanism and hardware with clean, damp cloth. 4.3 Urinals: When cleaning the urinals, wash and wipe inside and out. If deposits are difficult to remove, use appropriate cleaner and method to remove deposits. Care must be taken to ensure that the underside of the urinal fixture rim and holes in the bottom and back of all urinals are cleaned. Waterless urinals will be cleaned in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. The chemical additive will be replenished or changed according to the same recommendations. 4.4 Sinks: A satisfactory or acceptably clean sink is free of grease, dirt, soap film and streaks. Chrome plated hardware will be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth. 4.5 Deodorants and Disinfectants: Various types of disinfectants will be used on toilet bowls, floors, partitions and similar fixtures as necessary. Solid crystal deodorants will not be used in urinals. Proper cleaning and ventilation eliminates the need for deodorants in toilet rooms. 4.6 Toilet Room Walls, Partitions and Woodwork: The accumulation of dirt on walls and partitions will not be allowed. A restroom that is acceptably clean shall include clean joints in the tile, and be free of film streaks, deposits and soiling. A disinfectant shall be used as necessary. 4.7 Toilet Room Dispensers: Paper towels, toilet tissue and soap dispensers and feminine hygiene dispensers will be checked and refilled daily. An adequate daily supply of materials will be kept available. 4.8 Waste Baskets and "Special" Waste Baskets in Women's Restrooms: Waste baskets in all restrooms will be emptied daily into the main receptacle, immediately prior to emptying of the main receptacle into the outside dumpster. 5.0 Miscellaneous Cleaning and Maintenance 5.1 Drinking Fountains: All drinking fountains will be cleaned daily. Appropriate cleaners shall be used when cleaning surfaces to ensure no damage occurs, while removing water spots and stains. 189 SPECS - Page 5 of 5 5.2 Glass Cleaning: All glass will be cleaned with a mild glass cleaning solution. Adjacent trim will be wiped clean with a damp cloth where soiled by spillage or by smears in the glass cleaning operation. 5.3 All glass, including mirrors, glass cabinets, display cases, and partitions (glass or plastics) will be cleaned in accordance with the frequency schedule. 5.4 All glass windows and doors will be spotted and cleaned in accordance with the frequency schedule. 5.5 Spot Cleaning: Walls, wainscoting, doors and trim will be cleaned when necessary to remove small or spot areas of dirt, grease stains or friction marks. Care will be taken to perform spot cleaning without damage to the surface finish and to provide an overall uniform appearance substantially free of cleaning marks after spot cleaning. 5.6 Cleaning and Polishing Furniture in Public Areas: All finished surfaces will be cleaned and receive an adequate application of furniture polish to remove dirt, and leave a gloss or sheen. Polish shall not leave surface oily, sticky, or injure varnish and enamel. All furniture, metal, wooden or upholstered, will be free of all wax, scuff marks, water marks and cobwebs. Metal surfaces will be cleaned. Care must be taken not to damage the finished surfaces. 5.7 Emptying and Cleaning Waste and Recycling Receptacles: The main waste receptacles will be emptied, daily and deposited in collection containers provided for that purpose. Receptacles will be kept free of deposits, dirt streaks, and odors. The office paper recycling and cardboard storage containers will be emptied as needed or at least every other week and deposited in the collection containers provided for that purpose on site. 5.8 Blinds: All blinds in compliance with the attached schedule. Acceptably clean blinds will be free of dust, dirt, deposits and film. Paint coatings, plastics and fabrics will not be damaged. 5.9 Light Fixtures: All exposed light fixtures and accessible components including lenses, louvers and housings, will be cleaned with a clean damp cloth and appropriate cleaners.
