Summary of the contracting process

FLYDONCASTER LIMITED procured lagoon bird netting and wiring tensioning works for DSA. The work covers installation and tensioning of netting and wiring to manage birds around the lagoon, including associated site preparation, fencing or safety installations, maintenance and pest-control work. The awarded work is delivered in Doncaster. It is a specialist requirement combining practical installation and maintenance with bird and pest management, rather than a general construction or cleaning contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. FLYDONCASTER LIMITED used an open competitive flexible procedure, described as a restricted tender. One lot was awarded to AIRPORT UTILITIES LIMITED. The award was made by 7 August 2026; the contract was signed on 1 September 2026 and runs from 7 September 2026 to 6 September 2027, with two possible 24-month renewals and a maximum end date of 6 September 2031. The contract is valued at £250,000 excluding VAT (£300,000 including VAT). The tender estimate was £206,000 excluding VAT (£247,200 including VAT). Evaluation weighted quality, including social value, at 70% and price at 30%. SMEs were considered suitable to bid.

This award shows demand from FLYDONCASTER LIMITED for specialist lagoon bird-control infrastructure in Doncaster. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to combine netting and wiring installation and tensioning with relevant site-preparation, fencing or safety-work capability and practical pest-control expertise. The evaluation placed greater weight on quality, including social value, than on price, so suppliers should be able to evidence delivery standards and explain their social-value contribution alongside competitive pricing. The contract’s performance measures cover delivery, response times, work duration and programming, issue resolution and customer satisfaction, all reviewed monthly. Suppliers able to plan and deliver work reliably, respond to problems, remedy defects and demonstrate customer-focused performance would be well aligned with the buyer’s requirements.
