This is for Contract Modification No. 1 for Janitorial Services for City Facilities contracts with Savannah River Enterprises, dba Jani‑King of Savannah. This modification increases the total contract capacity from $1,027,464.00 to a not‑to‑exceed amount of $1,134,834.00, representing an increase of $107,370.00.

This Contract Modification No. 1 is necessary to address the City of Savannah's expanded janitorial service requirements resulting from the addition of new City locations and additional spaces within facilities currently covered under the existing contract.  The request is to prevent inconsistent cleaning coverage, increased administrative and operational burdens, and impacts on the cleanliness, and usability of City facilities. As a result, the proposed modification is necessary to ensure adequate janitorial coverage for the continued effective operation of City-operated spaces.  Approving this modification supports Goals 3, 4, and 5 of the City's Strategic Plan by ensuring City facilities remain clean, safe, and functional, while increasing operational efficiency through existing contracts.

The contracts are annual with four (4) renewal options, with one (1) renewal remaining. The next renewal date is September 27, 2027. Originally approved in Council on 9/28/2023, the contracts include a 38% DBE participation goal.
