Framework Description
Pest Control Products and Services 150_25 is ESPO's framework for buying pest control products and proactive, reactive and emergency pest control services. It has three lots, was procured under the Procurement Act 2023 and is not a DPS. It runs from 19 December 2025 to 18 December 2028, with an option to extend to 18 December 2029.
Context & Use Case
Local authorities, housing providers and schools use 150_25 for scheduled preventive visits, responses to infestations and urgent call-outs, or simply to buy products for their own teams to use. Call-offs can be made without competition or through a further competitive selection process, so a school can place a small contract quickly while a council competes a borough-wide service.
Scope of Services
Lot 1: Supply of Pest Control Products Lot 2.1: Proactive and Reactive Pest Control Services Lot 2.2: Emergency Reactive Pest Control Services
Lots
Lot 1 Supply of Pest Control Products; Lot 2.1 Proactive and Reactive Pest Control Services; Lot 2.2 Emergency Reactive Pest Control Services
Who Can Apply
Suits pest control contractors with emergency response capacity and suppliers of pest control products. 150_25 is closed to new applications until ESPO re-tenders it, which is likely around 18 December 2028 or, with the extension, 18 December 2029.
Buyer Benefits
Buyers value having an emergency-only lot, so urgent call-outs are covered without a full planned maintenance contract. Splitting products from services lets organisations with in-house teams buy materials only. The choice of direct call-off or competition keeps small site contracts quick while larger estates can still test the market.
Next Steps
Appointed suppliers should set out response times, coverage areas and reporting so buyers can make direct awards with confidence, and prepare for further competitions on larger estates. Firms not on 150_25 should check its page on espo.org, and build case studies, industry accreditation evidence and public sector references before the re-tender.
How Athena Can Help
On 150_25 the competitive call-offs are where larger housing and council contracts are decided. Athena's bid team can write responses that show your response times and coverage, model your score against rival contractors and price the service to win.
If you are not on the framework, our help with public sector tenders can win you standalone pest control contracts, and our framework registration support will plan and prepare your application for the next ESPO re-tender.
