2023-118 Pest Control Services Fairfield Public Schools

The Town of Fairfield, Connecticut, on behalf of its Board of Education, is seeking competitive bids for Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. 2023-118 for comprehensive pest control services across 17 school facilities within the district. Qualified pest control contractors are required to perform monthly monitoring and exterminating services as detailed in the bid specifications. The solicitation requires vendors to provide a holistic approach to pest management, with services to be delivered through systematic monthly inspections and targeted extermination protocols. The bid period is open from February 6, 2023, to March 7, 2023, with a specific vendor question and answer period running from February 6, 2023 (11:45 AM EST) through February 28, 2023 (11:00 AM EST). Bidders must submit their proposals by March 7, 2023, at 11:00 AM EST, with all submissions to be directed to Pru O'Brien at the Town of Fairfield. The delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, and payment terms will be vendor-specified. Potential contractors must demonstrate professional capabilities in pest control services specific to educational facility environments.

While the solicitation documents do not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises, the bid is open to all vendors without apparent limitations. No incumbent vendor information is provided, and the documents do not specify integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technologies. The solicitation notably lacks an estimated total contract value or budget range, which suggests vendors will be expected to provide comprehensive pricing based on the specified scope of work. The bid has been designated as having no line items, indicating that vendors must provide holistic pricing for the entire pest control service package. The contract appears to be structured for a potential multi-month or annual service agreement, though the exact duration is not explicitly stated in the available documentation. Interested pest control contractors will need to carefully review the detailed specifications in the accompanying "2023-118 Pest Control Service.pdf" document to prepare a comprehensive and competitive bid.
