Pest Control Services for KHP Salina

The Kansas Highway Patrol (KHP) is seeking competitive proposals for comprehensive pest control services across five facilities in Salina, Kansas, including the Salina Training Academy Complex, Troop C, Evidence Building, Driving Range, and Blue Building at Salina Airport. The procurement involves a fixed-price contract for pest management services targeting insects such as roaches, silverfish, fleas, crickets, spiders, ants, and gnats, as well as bed bugs and rodent control. Services must include monthly outside perimeter treatments from March through November, interior treatments of all floors including basements, cafeteria, kitchen areas, and bathrooms, and callback services within one business day of request. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for December 23, 2025, at 10:00 AM CST, with facility walk-throughs required for all five buildings; failure to attend in person and complete the entire walk-through will result in bid rejection. Vendors must submit detailed technical and cost proposals by January 14, 2026, at 2:00 PM CST, with pricing requiring separate line items for light traps, glue boards, aerosol sprays, exterior power spray treatments, and bed bug treatments.

Bidders must maintain current Kansas pesticide business licenses and demonstrate at least five years of continuous active participation in pest control services, providing two Kansas-based references from current customers. The contract includes provisions for potential disadvantaged business participation, with opportunities for Certified Business Bidder Preference and Disabled Veteran Owned Business preference programs. Vendors must submit various compliance documentation, including a current Tax Clearance Certificate, Immigration Reform and Control Act compliance forms, Boycott of Israel certification, and Sexual Harassment policy compliance statements. Insurance requirements mandate minimum coverage of $25,000 bodily injury liability and $100,000 property damage liability per occurrence. The contract term extends from the award date through June 30, 2031, with allowances for incremental price increases not exceeding 5% annually for years two through five. While specific budget ranges were not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the services and multi-year contract suggest a significant procurement opportunity for qualified pest control providers.
