OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Strathclyde intends to establish a contract for pest control and associated services across the University in Glasgow. The service scope includes pest control inspections and treatments, planned preventative maintenance, and ad-hoc or reactive visits. The requirement is intended to support the University’s activities and facilities. Suppliers would need to provide suitably qualified and equipped personnel to deliver the services. The procurement is categorised as pest-control services (CPV 90922000). The requirement is arranged as one lot and the published scope states that the listed activities are not exhaustive, so the eventual specification may cover related pest-control and maintenance services.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the University has published an intention to procure and has not yet invited tenders. The planned method and procedure are not stated. The University may carry out further market engagement, and interested parties are expected to register their interest by 12 noon on 15 September 2026. The buyer’s indicative date for the next notice is 21 October 2026. The estimated total value is £220,000. The intended contract period is 2027 to 2031. The planned service includes a standard 24-hour response from receipt of a call, unless otherwise agreed, and an emergency response within four hours in exceptional circumstances. The information remains subject to change.

This will suit established pest-control contractors able to combine routine inspections and treatments with planned preventative maintenance and responsive call-out services. Suppliers should be prepared to resource reactive visits and meet a standard 24-hour response requirement, with capacity for four-hour emergency attendance in exceptional circumstances. The buyer is looking for personnel who are suitably qualified and equipped to carry out the services, so businesses should be able to demonstrate relevant staff competence, operational coverage and appropriate equipment. Experience of delivering pest-control services for a large, complex site such as a university would be useful when the requirement reaches the market. Interested businesses should use the planning period to review their capability and prepare for possible market engagement.
