********************Questions & Answers- Updated 13 May 2026******************** 1. Is this a brand new contract or, if not, is there an incumbent performing these services? A - This is not a brand new BPA. The incumbent is Vida Miller. BPA number FA486121A0012. Total contract value/BPA ceiling is $500k. 2. Can give me any further information regarding the scope? Square footage breakdown of the buildings to be cleaned would be wonderful, if available! Also wondering if the carpets have been maintained yearly or is this a catch up cleaning? A - When we make a request for carpet cleaning we will provide the square footage at that time. 3. The price list provided in Attachment 1 (Supplies or Services & Prices or Costs) lists eleven square footage tiers. Could the Government clarify if the price requested for each tier should be a flat rate for any cleaning within that range, or a unit price per square foot applicable to that tier? A - The price should be a flat rate for each tier. 4. To support accurate labor and material forecasting, can the Government provide a historical estimate or anticipated annual frequency for each square footage tier?

A - We just need contact number and an email address for the poc to contact when we need to request for floor cleaning. 6. SOW Section 2.1 mentions the ability to perform cleanings after hours and on weekends as coordinated by the COR. Should offerors include separate line items for premium "After-Hours" or "Weekend" rates, or is the Government expecting the standard tier pricing to be all-inclusive regardless of the time of performance? A - There should not be separate line items for "premium" rates. If the service is requested to be performed outside of normal hours, the emergency service call fee would be applied along with the normal tier pricing. 7. SOW Section 1.2 references "industry standard" for steam cleaning. Does the Government require adherence to a specific commercial standard, such as the IICRC S100 (Standard and Reference Guide for Professional Cleaning of Commercial Carpet), or are there specific moisture-content or drying-time requirements we should account for? A - The industry standard for carpet cleaning. 8. SOW Section 1.2 requires the contractor to identify non-removable stains to the Government Representative prior to cleaning completion. To avoi…
