Pest Control Services - REBID

Broome County is seeking a comprehensive pest control services contractor through a Request for Bid (RFB-2025-021) for various county facilities across 26 different locations, including the County Courthouse, Public Safety Facility, and Veteran's Memorial Arena. The procurement covers thorough pest management services targeting insects, rodents, reptiles, amphibians, and other animals, with service frequencies ranging from monthly to quarterly or as-needed treatments. Contractors must provide emergency response capabilities with timeframes between 12-24 hours depending on the specific facility. The initial contract term will commence on June 1, 2025, with a one-year base period and potential options for three additional one-year renewals at the county's discretion. Bidders are required to submit detailed monthly pricing for individual facilities, specialized service pricing for rodent removal and animal entrapment, and must comply with prevailing wage requirements. The bid response is due by April 30, 2025, with the county reserving the right to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, potentially awarding by individual location or combination of locations.

The contract does not specifically outline set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but bidders must submit multiple certifications including non-collusion, election law, and Iranian energy divestment statements. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage and are subject to potential price adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index using a specific calculation methodology. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, successful bidders will need to demonstrate extensive pest control expertise, appropriate licensing, and the capability to service a diverse range of county facilities. The solicitation indicates that pricing will be determined on a per-month basis for each location, with additional specialized service rates, suggesting a potential annual contract value that could range significantly depending on the scope and frequency of services required. Prospective bidders should carefully review the detailed requirements in the RFB document, particularly the specific service expectations for each county facility and the comprehensive insurance and certification prerequisites.
