How to win more janitorial & custodial bids
- Read the Performance Work Statement for square footage, frequency and service hours — they drive your price more than anything else.
- Check the Service Contract Act wage determination for the county; it sets the minimum wage and fringe you must pay.
- Look up the previous award (incumbent and value) before pricing — ServiceVest pulls this from USAspending.gov and SAM.gov for you.
- Attend or request the site visit when one is offered; it often changes the scope.
