    Class 'A' office buildings are usually cleaned at about 2,800 to 3,000 sq ft per hour, this is an average figure your specs will indicate if you need more time. So I would estimate your cleaning hours per day at 3.5 to 4 hours. Using an hourly schedule calculate your loaded labor, taxes, equipment, supplies, admin overhead, etc plus profit. This will give you a 'loaded' hourly rate, extend this to weekly, then monthly for you bid price.
