Sapporo Janitorial Services Contract

The U.S. Consulate General in Sapporo, Japan issued RFQ 19JA70‑26‑Q‑0027 for firm‑fixed‑price janitorial services. The contract will be awarded to the lowest‑priced, technically acceptable, responsible offeror—preferably a women‑owned small business (WOSB). Offerors must be registered in SAM, submit a completed SF‑1449 and IRS Form W‑14, and provide evidence of an established business presence in Japan (permanent address/telephone) or a commitment to open an office within 30 days of award. Required documentation includes a project manager’s name, past‑performance references for the last three years, copies of any required local licenses/permits (or a plan to obtain them), insurance certificates if applicable, and a detailed work plan covering personnel, equipment, supplies, quality‑control procedures, and a hazard‑assessment sheet. Performance will be measured by a maximum of one customer complaint per month, with the Contracting Officer’s Representative documenting and forwarding complaints for corrective action. Submissions must conform to the solicitation’s format, be under 15 MB per email (larger files must be split), and be confirmed with Toshiya Ikeda (mobile 090‑6113‑1609) after delivery. Evaluation will consist of a compliance review, technical acceptability (including past performance and capability evidence), and price analysis. The solicitation incorporates FAR and DOSAR provisions, including the prohibition on contracting with entities engaged in certain Iran‑related activities and the Department of State Advocate for Competition process. No payment will be made for quotation preparation, and the award is expected without discussions unless a competitive‑range clarification is needed.
