Government contracts for janitorial & cleaning services in Maryland

Janitorial & cleaning services contracts in Maryland typically cover nightly custodial of federal buildings, floor and carpet care at IRS and SSA offices, restroom servicing at VA facilities, and post-construction cleaning. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), and the bulk of the work flows to the GSA Public Buildings Service, the VA, and DoD installations. Janitorial work is one of the most reliable small-business set-aside categories, including AbilityOne and SourceAmerica routes.

Maryland aggressively enforces MBE goals — most contracts carry a target percentage that prime contractors must subcontract to certified MBE firms. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a janitorial and custodial vendor doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
