Summary of the contracting process

The South Lanarkshire Council is initiating a procurement process for the "SLC Kennelling of Stray Dogs" contract, aimed at ensuring the humane care and management of stray dogs in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act 1990. This procurement falls under the services category and is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 8th May 2019. The contract will be executed in Hamilton, Scotland, and parties interested in bidding are encouraged to prepare ahead of the impending tender announcement.

This opportunity presents a significant chance for businesses involved in animal welfare, veterinary services, or kennel operations to engage with a local authority contract. Companies that can demonstrate capacity to care for stray dogs, provide veterinary support, and ideally facilitate rehoming efforts would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this tender allows businesses to contribute to public service while potentially expanding their operational scope through established contracts with local government entities.

Notice Information

Notice Title

SLC Kennelling of Stray Dogs

Notice Description

The Council are seeking a provider to kennel stray dogs as per the Environmental Protection Act 1990, which places a duty on local authorities to deal with stray dogs. Section 149 (6) (d) allows the local authority to sell or give away to an establishment that receives stray dogs, any stray dog that has not been claimed by the owner within 7 days. Section 149 (9) places a duty on the local authority to ensure that detained strays are properly fed and maintained. The current negotiated contract allows the Council to fulfil these statutory obligations as the Provider employs vets, enabling strays to be checked and therefore will be maintained properly and also humanely destroyed if the dog was suffering, with a view to dogs being rehomed.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The current agreement allows the Council to fulfil the statutory obligations as the provider employs a vet, so stray dogs are checked and maintained properly, also humanely destroyed if the dog was suffering in anyway. It would be preferred that any treatment required be carried out in the same establishment that receives strays, after the statutory 7 day holding period. From a moral perspective, it would be preferred that dogs are rehomed where possible rather than destroyed.
