Summary of the contracting process

Yorkshire Water Services Limited intends to procure pest control services across its estate in Yorkshire. The work is primarily the provision and servicing of bait boxes at approximately 600 sites, alongside other pest control services. This is a utilities services requirement for suppliers specialising in pest management, including those able to organise work across a large, dispersed estate. The service category is pest control (CPV 90922000). Yorkshire Water is the buying organisation, and the delivery area is Yorkshire. The requirement is structured as one lot and is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist pest-control businesses as well as larger providers able to deliver the geographic coverage and ongoing service needed.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Yorkshire Water has set out its intention to buy the services, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to publish a further procurement notice on 21 October 2026. The planned contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2031, with provision for extension to 31 March 2033. The contract is a single lot. Yorkshire Water plans a Teams market-engagement session during the week commencing 19 October 2026, to explain the requirement; suppliers interested in attending are asked to email the buying team to express interest. No tender procedure, evaluation criteria or contract value is stated at this planning stage.

The requirement is likely to suit specialist pest-control providers with the capacity to service around 600 sites across Yorkshire, manage bait boxes and deliver other pest-control work as required. SMEs are expressly considered suitable, so a smaller business with appropriate operational coverage may be relevant, as well as a larger contractor. Suppliers should consider whether they can organise recurring site visits and coordinate service delivery across a sizeable estate. Yorkshire Water is holding an engagement session to give suppliers an overview of the requirement, offering interested businesses an early opportunity to understand the anticipated work and prepare for the later procurement. The published scope does not set out particular licences, accreditations, technical standards or minimum experience requirements.
