What this means
- The middle janitorial award in the Washington, DC area was $36.5k (FY2021-FY2025, 711 priced awards).
- That is 73% higher than the median for janitorial in the District of Columbia ($21.1k).
- Competed awards drew a median of 3 offers (reported for 89 of 89).
- 20% of competed awards drew only one offer.
- In FY2025 the middle award was $33.5k, up 7% from FY2024 ($31.3k).
- Tip 60% of these awards were task orders under single-award contracts (IDIQs). Only the company holding that contract could get them, so watch for the umbrella contract to be re-bid.
