PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

RSPB Northern Ireland is procuring predator-control services at the Knocks and Corranny sites in County Fermanagh. The work is intended to significantly reduce foxes and carrion, hooded and hybrid crows across key east Fermanagh sites covering 1,500 hectares. The contractor must carry out the control in line with Northern Ireland legislation and General Licence requirements, as well as the RSPB’s Vertebrate Control and Health and Safety policies. This is a field-based wildlife-management service for suppliers able to undertake predator control across a substantial rural area and work to the specified legal and organisational controls.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The tender deadline and scheduled bid opening were 24 November 2026 at 17:00. The contract is due to run from 14 December 2026 to 31 March 2028. The procurement is arranged as one lot, covering the predator-control work at Knocks and Corranny. Bidders may not submit variants. The stated evaluation start is 24 November 2026 at 17:00. The opportunity is subject to the Government Procurement Agreement. Registration for the tender documents and submission are through the buyer’s electronic procurement facility; tender queries were to be emailed by 13 November 2026, with responses provided through that facility.

This opportunity is best suited to contractors with practical experience in managing foxes and carrion, hooded or hybrid crow populations at rural sites, and the operational capacity to deliver control across a 1,500-hectare area. Suppliers need to understand and comply with Northern Ireland legislation and General Licence requirements for this work, and be able to follow the RSPB’s Vertebrate Control and Health and Safety policies. It may suit specialist wildlife-management or pest-control businesses with field teams, suitable equipment and robust safety procedures. The requirement is for a defined site-based service rather than goods or construction work; successful delivery depends on reducing predator abundance while working within the stated regulatory and organisational safeguards.
