UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

New College Swindon is seeking an integrated pest management and pest control service for its two campuses in Swindon. The requirement covers planned preventative maintenance, reactive pest control, pest monitoring, reporting and contract management. The service is classified as pest-control services and falls within the wider category of facilities and operational support services. The successful supplier will provide an organised programme to prevent and respond to pest problems across the college estate, maintain monitoring arrangements and report activity and outcomes to the college. This is a single service requirement covering both campuses, rather than a supply of products alone, and will require coordination with college staff and site operations.

The procurement has reached tender: New College Swindon invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Questions could be submitted until 8 September 2026 at 10:00, and offers were due by 17 September 2026 at 10:00. The contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2030. Its estimated value is £30,000 excluding VAT, or £36,000 including VAT. Electronic submission was allowed. The buyer will assess offers on price (50%), quality and technical response (20%), social value (10%), qualifications, accreditations and compliance (10%), and contract management, reporting and portal functionality (10%). A mandatory site visit forms part of the requirement.

This opportunity suits pest control businesses able to deliver both preventative and reactive services across a multi-campus college estate. Suppliers should be capable of planned maintenance, pest monitoring, responsive call-outs, clear reporting and effective day-to-day contract management. The evaluation specifically rewards the strength of qualifications, accreditations and compliance arrangements, alongside the technical quality of the proposed service. A supplier should therefore be able to demonstrate appropriately qualified personnel, compliant working practices, reliable response arrangements and systems for recording and reporting activity. Experience managing services for occupied education, commercial or similarly complex sites would be relevant. The contract is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so specialist smaller providers may be well placed to compete.
