The contractor shall furnish all labor and supervision necessary to perform the specialized cleaning services to the additional assign areas for the Partial Option Year 3 and Option Year 4. The total assign areas are estimated at 161,740 square feet. This covers approximately 80,870 square feet of the Clinical Center per option year. Those areas to be covered are O.R.
