BACKGROUND INFORMATION:  (25-10PV-02) 1GPA solicited and awarded a contract to CSS 
Facility Services, Inc. for custodial, grounds and facility maintenance services. This solicitation and 
award includes a wide range of custodial, grounds, and facility maintenance services. The City’s in-
house custodial operation has seen an increase in workload and position vacancies. To address this 
situation, Facilities Services has supplemented cleaning support by contracting with companies, which 
has proven to be a successful approach. The Facility Services Division utilizes these firms for cleaning 
City buildings that do not require special access or background checks. This allows the City to utilize 
Facilities employees in areas that require security clearance
1GPA is a national governmental purchasing cooperative that allows public agencies to take advantage 
of competitively awarded contracts to purchase goods and services needed from local and national 
vendors. Pricing obtained via 1GPA are leveraged with higher volumes which provides all participating 
agencies access to lower pricing.
