Federal cleaning demand in Tampa–St. Petersburg–Clearwater, FL
The Tampa Bay metro hosts a deep federal janitorial market anchored by the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense. James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital (JAHVH) at 13000 Bruce B. Downs Blvd is one of the largest VA medical centers in the Southeast, generating multiple recurring custodial contract vehicles each fiscal year through VA Network Contracting Office 8 (NCO 8, Bay Pines FL). The VA also operates Bay Pines Healthcare System across the bay, adding significant additional cleanable square footage. MacDill Air Force Base — home to US Central Command (CENTCOM) and US Special Operations Command (SOCOM) — is a major DoD buyer of custodial services under 56 ABW contracting, issuing base-support IDIQ contracts with 5-year ordering periods. GSA Region 4 (Southeast-Sunbelt) manages civilian federal courthouses and office buildings in downtown Tampa. The SCA Janitor floor for Hillsborough, Pasco, Pinellas, and Hernando counties is $15.27/hr (WD 2015-4571 Rev 28, effective Dec 03, 2025).

SCA wage floor (current WD)
WD 2015-4571 Rev 28, effective Dec 03, 2025, covers Hernando, Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas counties and sets Janitor (occupation code 11150) at $15.27/hr base + $5.36/hr H&W fringe = loaded floor ~$20.63/hr. Workers on contracts entered or extended after Jan 30, 2022 are covered by EO 14026 (currently ~$17.75/hr) — the EO rate exceeds the WD rate, so EO 14026 governs for covered contracts.
