Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by Dacorum Borough Council involves the establishment of a Dog Wash Facility at Gadebridge Park, situated in Hemel Hempstead, UK. The procurement process is in the Award stage, with key activities completed by 17th June 2026. The process used a direct method due to it being below the threshold, therefore proceeding without competition. It falls under the 'goods' category, specifically concerning washing equipment, with plans lasting from 1st August 2026 to 31st July 2031, and potential for renewal post an initial five-year term.

This contract presents growth opportunities for businesses operating in the pet care and washing equipment industries, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like POLYGON PETS LIMITED, the awarded supplier.
