T3156 - Pest Control Services: Residential, Non-Residential, and Vehicles (Statewide)

The State of New Jersey Department of the Treasury, Division of Purchase and Property, is procuring statewide pest control services for residential facilities, non-residential facilities, and state vehicles through Bid Solicitation #25DPP01132 (Contract T3156). The procurement encompasses three service categories distributed across Northern, Central, and Southern geographic regions, totaling 163 price lines. Services include routine monthly pest control maintenance, rodent control, treatment of stinging insects, bed bug detection and treatment (visual inspection, canine detection, and interceptor placement), termite inspection and chemical soil barrier treatment, baiting abatement, flying insect control, groundhog and skunk removal, and bird control services. Bidders must submit all-inclusive hourly rates for inspection and treatment activities, with termite treatments priced per linear foot and termite monitoring priced as monthly rates. Required qualifications include a valid Pesticide Applicator Business License, valid New Jersey Certified Pesticide Applicator Licenses for all assigned personnel, background clearances (with specific procedures for State House Complex access), and retention of an entomologist consultant at no additional cost to the State. The State intends to award up to eighteen contracts (a primary and secondary contractor for each region within each category) with a three-year base term and optional extensions up to three additional years (not to exceed one year per extension). An optional pre-quote conference is scheduled for April 2, 2026 at 11:00 AM, written questions are due by April 9, 2026 at 2:00 PM, and completed quotes must be submitted by May 7, 2026 at 2:00 PM via NJSTART using the state-supplied price sheet in its original Excel format without modifications.

This procurement is designated as a Small Business Subcontracting Set-Aside contract, requiring bidders intending to use subcontractors to demonstrate good faith efforts to solicit and utilize New Jersey Small Business Enterprises and/or Disabled Veterans' Businesses through a Subcontractor Utilization Plan. All quotes must be submitted exclusively through NJSTART and must include mandatory certifications and forms including the Offer and Acceptance Page, Ownership Disclosure Form, Disclosure of Investment Activities in Iran Form, MacBride Principles Form, Subcontractor Utilization Plan, Source Disclosure Form, Confidentiality and Commitment to Defend Certification, State of New Jersey Security Due Diligence Third-Party Information Security Questionnaire, Public Work Registration Certificate, Proof of Business Registration, Certificate of Insurance with minimum commercial general liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence and automobile liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit, Proof of Affirmative Action Compliance, Bidder Data Sheet documenting prior similar contracts, and the Bidder Quote Overview Form detailing the bidder's overall approach and contract management plan. The State retains broad discretionary authority to reduce scope of work, modify contracts, and conduct audits of contractor records for five years post-completion, with payment governed by the New Jersey Prompt Payment Act requiring payment within 60 days of receipt. No bid security or retainage is required, though contractors must remit a one percent procurement efficiency program fee directly to Periscope and submit quarterly sales reports. The procurement documents do not specify an overall budget value, but the statewide scope covering 29 non-residential facilities ranging from approximately 4,272 to 839,000 square feet, plus residential and vehicle services across three regions, indicates a substantial contract opportunity.
