Summary of the contracting process

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority, on behalf of Greater Manchester Police, is seeking tenders for the provision of "Animal Transport, Treatment & Associated Services," which includes the collection and transportation of dogs and other animals. This procurement falls under the transport services industry and is set in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the open stage, with a submission deadline of 28 September 2018. The contracting authority plans to award one contract, with a budget range of £250,000 to £500,000, with the services required 24/7, including public holidays.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in animal transport, veterinary services, and dog kennel services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies well-equipped to provide emergency veterinary treatment and logistical support for animal welfare initiatives would be particularly suited to compete. The winning bidder will play a crucial role in supporting the Greater Manchester Police's duties involving the care of seized animals, which could lead to further contracts and partnerships in related areas.
