Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by the University of Aberdeen, involved the tender and subsequent award for the "Provision of Pest Control Services" across its estate, focusing on comprehensive and environmentally responsible pest management solutions. The buying organisation is based in Aberdeen, Scotland (UKM50), and operates in the education sector. The open procurement method used indicates a transparent selection process, with the final contract awarded to two suppliers: Copley Pest Solution from Leeds and RCA Pest Services Ltd from Glasgow. The contract, valued at £200,000, was signed on 2 February 2026, with the process now in the contract award stage.
