Request for Proposals - Sacramento County Department of Airports (SCDA) Pest Management Services

The Sacramento County Department of Airports (SCDA) is seeking proposals for comprehensive pest management services across four county airports, including Sacramento International Airport, through a Request for Proposals (RFP) released on January 14, 2025. The contract will initially run from the execution date through June 30, 2029, with potential extensions up to ten total years. Proposers must demonstrate a minimum of five years of pest management experience, preferably in airport or large-scale facility settings, and hold all required California state licenses and certifications. The scope of services includes implementing an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program designed to maintain a pest-free environment, covering areas such as terminals, concourses, administrative offices, maintenance facilities, parking structures, and airside spaces. Evaluation criteria will assess proposers based on experience, qualifications, approach to integrated pest management, staffing plan, and cost, with a total possible score of 100 points. A mandatory virtual pre-proposal conference is scheduled for January 28, 2025, and proposals are due on February 14, 2025, at 12:00 P.M. Pacific Time, with potential contract award anticipated in April or May 2025.

The RFP does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contractor will be required to provide comprehensive services including regular inspections, pest identification, preventative measures, and control protocols for various pests such as ants, bees, birds, cockroaches, rodents, and seasonal mosquito populations. While specific pricing details are not publicly disclosed, the contract will be subject to budget constraints with a maximum payment amount to be determined during negotiations. The selected vendor must provide 24/7 emergency response, detailed reporting, and comply with environmental and safety regulations. The contractor will also be required to maintain appropriate insurance coverage and adhere to federal and state non-discrimination and labor standards. The Department reserves the right to negotiate agreements and may conduct interviews with top-ranked proposers before making a final selection, suggesting flexibility in the procurement process.
