Summary of the contracting process

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council has completed a procurement process for pest control services, transitioning from using multiple contractors to a single contract awarded to PROFESSIONAL PEST MANAGEMENT LIMITED. This contract, which falls under the services category, is valued at £177,600 and commenced on 1st July 2026, with a potential extension up to 30th June 2030. Located in the Welwyn Garden City area, this open competition followed procedures below the financial threshold and aimed to consolidate pest management services across residential and housing-related land. The procurement reached the award and contract stage by July 2026, after the tender process, which was publicly accessible through an electronic submission policy.

This tender creates significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in pest control services to engage with public-sector clients. By centralising pest management under a single provider, the contract offers a stable, multi-year business relationship, ideal for firms seeking consistent income streams. Companies with expertise in handling comprehensive pest control across different types of land will find this particularly advantageous. Furthermore, as renewals are possible, this offers long-term growth opportunities for the winning business. Businesses located within or near the United Kingdom, especially those offering competitive pricing and high service quality, would have been well-positioned to compete in this procurement process.
