FINANCIAL IMPACT
This item will not result in the use of Discretionary General Funding (Net County Cost).

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
HACSB currently contracts with various trade contractors to supplement our internal maintenance staff to maintain our affordable housing and administrative offices. HACSB contracts with a janitorial service company to ensure a uniform clean and business like appearance at its 16 administrative and affordable housing offices throughout the County of San Bernardino. On June 1, 2018, HACSB awarded a contract, PC1017, to General Building Management Co. for janitorial services. The original contract was for a one year period with the option to extend one additional two year term. Amendment No. 1, dated July 1, 2018, added service at the Upland administrative office. Amendment No. 2, dated June 1, 2019, extended the term of the contract through May 31, 2021.
This item will continue janitorial services at various HACSB sites as well as provide additional janitorial services at HACSB’s new computer lab in Barstow, increase the frequency of services at the Upland administrative office due to the recent increase of staff and services at this location, and remove service for the Ontario site.
PROCUREMENT
This contract falls under HACSB’s competitive proposals procurement selection process where services over $100,000 must be procured by soliciting offers, evaluating proposals and awarding contracts to the successful vendor(s). In 2018 General Building Management Co. submitted a proposal to RFP PC925 in which they were deemed qualified and responsive to provide these services to HACSB.
