Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process conducted by HOMES IN SOMERSET LIMITED involved awarding a contract for the treatment of bed bugs, with a focus on specialist services within the cleaning industry. The procurement, categorised under public authority services, was specifically aimed at addressing bed bug infestations and took place in the Somerset region, UK. The procurement stage has been completed, with the contract signed on 1st September 2025, and it is set to run until 1st January 2026, with possible extensions up to April 2026 if further treatment is needed. The procurement method used was direct and below threshold, meaning it was executed without competition.

This tender represents a strategic opportunity for service providers in pest control to expand their offerings in regional markets. The contract was awarded to GUARDIAN PEST CONTROL (SW) LIMITED, highlighting the potential for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to secure government contracts when niche expertise is demanded. Businesses with capabilities in pest control, especially those specialising in bed bug treatments, and possessing the agility and service quality demanded by public authority contracts, would benefit from staying alert to similar opportunities where streamlined procurement processes are employed.
