Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk Council, located in Bury St Edmunds, has awarded a contract for bird control measures at Vicon House under a direct procurement method. The process, classified within the construction work industry, was completed without competition, utilising a below-threshold procurement method. The contract, awarded to Dealy Environmental Protection, addresses the need for additional protection against nuisance bird activity on the site, which was not fully covered by existing net installations. The procurement process was finalised with the contract being signed on 1st May 2025, for implementation starting on the same day and ending on 2nd September 2025. The main procurement category was works, with the completion being marked active and completed well before the publication on 26th January 2026.

This contract presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in environmental protection and construction services, especially those offering innovative solutions for bird control. Given the nature of the procurement as below-threshold and without competition, it benefits smaller businesses that might lack the resources to engage in lengthy bidding processes. Such engagements with local government can significantly open up further opportunities for collaboration in public sector projects, enhancing business profiles and leading to potential growth within the UKH14 region.
