Background Information:
This request is to approve an annual State Use Contract between the City of San Marcos and Goodwill Temporary Services, Inc. through WorkQuest (Human Resource Code, Section 122).
This contract will include all labor, equipment, tools, materials, chemicals, janitorial supplies, supervision, and other items or services necessary to perform janitorial services for twenty-six (26) City facilities. Detailed janitorial services are outlined in the agreement attached to this agenda item (51 pages).
The contract will be effective January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022; therefore, it crosses two fiscal years. The estimated amount of the contract is $857,601.70 for FY22 and $138,139.90 for FY23. The total contract amount is $995,741.80.
Several factors influenced the year over year price increase of $360,816.05. In support of the retention of employees at fair, competitive market rates Goodwill has increased starting wages to $15.00 per hour. Also, Goodwill has incurred significant increases in the cost of fuel, supplies such as PPE and chemicals, such as disinfectants, and sanitizers. In addition, the city has added 83,100 square feet of space to this agreement requiring janitorial services which consists of the Public Library addition of approximately 28,000 and the new Public Services Center which added 55,100 square feet.
In today’s employment environment it would be extremely challenging to bring these services in house. Goodwill’s current 18 person staff, is 100% COSM residents. However, it is likely that few, if any, of these staff would qualify for employment with the City of San Marcos. Due to the nature of Goodwill’s employment model, to provide vocational rehabilitation and employment to “at risk” individuals, these staff may be ineligible for employment with the city due to pre-employment background checks.
