Federal cleaning demand in Salt Lake City, UT
Salt Lake City hosts one of the most distinctive federal janitorial markets in the Mountain West, anchored by two dominant buyers: Hill Air Force Base and the George E. Wahlen VA Medical Center. Hill AFB (Davis County, north of SLC) is one of the largest Air Force installations by acreage in the country — home to the Ogden Air Logistics Complex and a major aircraft maintenance and depot repair facility. Its custodial requirements are fulfilled through the AbilityOne program under a long-term IDIQ contract (FA820124D0015, $10M+ value through 2030) covering the main base plus satellite test and training facilities. The George E. Wahlen VAMC at 500 Foothill Blvd is the VISN 19 inpatient campus for Utah, with NCO 19 (36C259) issuing regular janitorial solicitations as SDVOSB set-asides. GSA Region 8 manages the Frank E. Moss US Courthouse and federal office buildings in downtown SLC. The IRS Ogden Service Center in Weber County is one of the IRS's largest processing facilities in the West. Two distinct SCA WDs apply: WD 2015-5489 ($14.81/hr) for Salt Lake and Tooele counties and WD 2015-5483 ($14.33/hr) for Davis, Morgan, and Weber counties where Hill AFB is located.

SCA wage floor (current WD)
WD 2015-5489 Rev 26, effective Jun 10, 2025, covers Salt Lake and Tooele counties (downtown SLC, federal buildings) and sets Janitor (occupation code 11150) at $14.81/hr base + $4.93/hr H&W fringe = loaded floor ~$19.74/hr. Hill AFB and nearby facilities in Davis, Morgan, and Weber counties fall under WD 2015-5483 Rev 26 at $14.33/hr. Workers on contracts entered or extended after Jan 30, 2022 are covered by EO 14026 (~$17.75/hr) — the EO rate exceeds both WD rates, so EO 14026 effectively governs as the floor for covered contracts in the SLC market.
