Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council involved an open competition for falconry services aimed at bird pest control. The contract, titled "Falconry Services For Bird Pest Control," specified delivery in the UKK24 region. Initially awarded to JMS BFD Limited T/A Copley Pest Solutions, the contract was set to commence on 1 April 2026 and end by 31 March 2029 with an option for extension subject to satisfactory performance. However, following the contract award, the supplier was unable to fulfil the requirements, leading to the termination on 18 March 2026. The procurement stage reached contract termination after the award and prior to the contract start date.

The tender aimed at reducing pest risks across Nuffield Household Waste Recycling Centre and BCP Housing sites offers significant opportunities for businesses skilled in pest-control services, particularly those able to provide falconry solutions. Despite the termination of the initial award, this presents a prospect for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) experienced in falconry and pest control to engage with public sector contracts, potentially expanding their market presence in the region. The procurement followed a legal basis under the UKPGA 2023/54 and required interested suppliers to access detailed procurement documentation online, encouraging electronic submission of tenders.
