What to know before you bid
Wage rates are set for you
Service contracts over $2,500 fall under the Service Contract Act, so you must pay at least the wage rates in the contract's wage determination, which is published on SAM.gov. Price your bid from those rates, not your usual ones.
Licenses and pest management plans
Notices usually require state pesticide applicator licenses, and many ask for an integrated pest management approach with approved products and set service frequencies.
Recurring service adds up
Most federal pest work is a recurring contract over a base year and option years, so price the whole period, not one visit.
