SUBJECT

Authorize a three-year service price agreement for janitorial services for the aquatic sprayground centers for the Park & Recreation Department - Superior Commercial Cleaning, most advantageous proposer of two - Estimated amount of $784,913.13 - Financing: General Funds
Body
BACKGROUND
This action does not encumber funds; the purpose of a service price agreement is to establish firm pricing for services, for a specific term, which are ordered on an as needed basis according to annual budgetary appropriations. The estimated amount is intended as guidance rather than a cap on spending under the agreement, so that actual need combined with the amount budgeted will determine the amount spent under this agreement.
This service price agreement will provide for janitorial services at aquatic sprayground centers for the Park and Recreation Department throughout the City.
A five-member committee from the following departments reviewed and evaluated the qualifications:
• Building Services Department (1)
• Office of Arts and Culture (1)
• Park & Recreation Department (2)
• Office of Procurement Services (1)*
*The Office of Procurement Services evaluated cost and local preference, if applicable.
The committee selected the successful respondent on the basis of demonstrated competence and qualifications under the following criteria:
• Cost 35 points
• Experience 30 points
• Approach 30 points
• Local Preference Program 5 points
As part of the solicitation process and in an effort to increase competition, the Office of Procurement Services used its procurement system to send out email notifications to vendors registered under relevant commodity codes. To further increase competition, the Office of Procurement Services uses historical solicitation information, the Internet, and vendor contact information obtained from user departments to contact additional vendors.
On November 10, 2015, the City Council authorized a living wage policy that requires contractors to pay their employees a “living wage” rate as established annually by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Living Wage Calculator for Dallas County by Resolution No. 15-2141. The current calculated living wage during the solicitation process of this contract is $15.21; the selected vendor meets this requirement.
