Amendment One

1/2/2025 – 8/31/2026

$1,407,573

Board approved Amendment One to add service locations and increase the contract amount

 

Amendment Two includes the addition of seven Orange County Probation Department (Probation) locations to the Contract and modification to the Scope of work and the Compensation and Payment sections, accounting for the new service locations. The new locations are currently serviced by a different contractor, but the services from US Metro Group, Inc. (Metro) better suit Probation’s needs. Metro has provided effective services to all other Probation locations, and for these reasons, Probation is requesting the consolidation of all locations under the proposed contract.

 

The table below is a list of the additional site locations. Probation shares the Probation Administration Office building with Orange County Child Support Services (CSS), who are included in the Contract. The Orange County Executive Office of Real Estate will be reimbursing Probation for the CSS portion of janitorial costs.

Probation now requests the Board’s approval of the Contract with Metro for Janitorial services effective October 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026, in an amount not to exceed $1,180,000, for a revised cumulative amount of $2,587,573. Probation is also requesting the Board’s approval for a 10 percent contingency cost increase in the event that emergency or after-hours cleaning is needed.

 

The Contract is being presented for Board approval less than 30 days before the effective date due to an extended review to ensure compliance with labor laws.

The contractor’s performance has been deemed satisfactory. Probation has verified there are no concerns that must be addressed with respect to Contractor’s ownership/name, litigation status, or conflicts with County interests. This Contract does not currently include subcontractors or pass through other contractors. See Attachment B for Contract Summary Form.
