NO. 04-038) APPROVED o As Recommended o As Amended o Ordinance on 1st Reading D Ordinance on 2nd Reading o Implementing Resolution o Set Public Hearing For fl4;a CI Y MANAGER CONTINUED TO --- FILE NUMBER RECOMMENDED ACTION Renew the contract with DMS Janitorial for janitorial service at various locations for a one-year period in the amount not to exceed $282,365. DISCUSSION Janitorial services for several City buildings, recreational facilities and park restrooms are provided through contractual custodial firms. Services performed under the contract include vacuuming, dusting, mopping, trash disposal, cleaning and restocking of restrooms, machine-buffing tile floors, and carpet shampooing. On May 3, 2004, the City Council awarded a contract to DMS Janitorial for a two-year period with provision for three one-year renewals. The vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past contract period. However, in the usual course of monitoring the work performed by the vendor, staff determined that an enhanced cleaning method was necessary for the park restrooms. In order to meet this requirement, DMS determined that the most effective method for cleaning the park restrooms was power washing. Power washing would provide a more clean and sanitary restroom facility for park patrons. Given the increased time and effort, DMS has estimated that it would cost an additional $6,000 per month to achieve the new requirement. As such, staff did conduct an informal review of the market and determined that the price increase is acceptable and comparable. In addition, staff conducted a cost benefit analysis of utilizing City employees to provide the janitorial services. Even with the increase, DMS Janitorial continues to be competitively priced. However, staff will rebid the service in the coming year. In order to allow time for the bid process and to provide uninterrupted service, staff recommends the first renewal of the contract. A ten percent contingency has been included in the award amount for any additional unanticipated service needs. 22L-1 Contract Renewal for Janitorial Service (Spec No.04-038) May 15, 2006 Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT Funds for the first month of the contract are available in the Finance & Management Services Building Maintenance Janitorial & Housekeeping Services account (account no. 73-106-6241) and the Recreation & Community Services Park Maintenance Other Contractual Services account (account no. 11-250- 6291).
