The requirement covers the planned delivery of professional pest management services for university buildings and associated estate operations. This is a services contract, classified under pest-control services. Suppliers should be able to provide a coordinated service across multiple university facilities rather than a single premises. The buyer is the University of Salford, a public authority. The work will be delivered in the United Kingdom, across the University of Salford estate. The opportunity is relevant to pest control contractors and facilities service providers with the operational capability to manage pest risks in an institutional, multi-site environment and to provide an ongoing service to a large public-sector organisation. The procurement has reached tender: the University of Salford invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It comprises one lot and has an estimated gross value of £90,000. Enquiries had to be submitted by 12:00 on 28 August 2026, and offers by 12:00 on 4 September 2026. Electronic submission was allowed. The initial contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, with provision for renewal on up to two occasions, each for up to one year, giving a maximum possible end date of 30 September 2031. Offers are evaluated on commercial factors at 70% and technical factors at 30%. The technical assessment covers sustainability at 10% and contract management at 20%. This opportunity suits pest control businesses able to deliver reliable services across a university estate and manage work across multiple buildings and operational settings. It is specifically identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so smaller specialist contractors may be well placed to compete. Strong bidders will need practical pest control capability, sufficient staffing and equipment to provide a consistent estate-wide service, and experience of organising planned and responsive work for an institutional client. The evaluation gives most weight to the commercial offer, while technical quality remains important through sustainability and contract management. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate a credible delivery model, effective contract oversight, sustainable working practices and the capacity to maintain service quality throughout the initial term and any renewals. ## Notice The University of Salford is seeking to engage a contractor to provide Pest Control services across the University Estate.
