Summary of the contracting process

RSPB Scotland, a charity based in Edinburgh, is currently conducting a tender for the project titled "Biosecurity - Detection Dogs 2019". This procurement process, classified under services and mainly focused on environmental protection, seeks to engage a contractor to supply one conservation rodent detection dog along with the necessary training and support for the handler. The tender was initiated on 4th November 2019 and submissions were accepted until 10th December 2019. The procurement method used is an open procedure, allowing for broad participation from interested suppliers.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in animal training, particularly those with experience in conservation and detection services. Companies equipped to deliver training and support for detection dogs, especially those familiar with handling conservation challenges and invasive species management, would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging in this contract could not only lead to immediate business growth but also establish long-term relationships with a reputable organisation like RSPB Scotland, potentially paving the way for future collaborations in environmental preservation projects.

Notice Title

Biosecurity - Detection Dogs 2019

Notice Description

Tender for the supply of one (1) conservation rodent detection dog and associated training and support of dog-handler

Lot Information

Lot 1

The RSPB is, on behalf of the Biosecurity for LIFE partnership, seeking to obtain the services of an experienced conservation detection dog trainer with a proven track-record in training working dogs for the purposes of scent-detection work. We require one (1) dog trained to search for and indicate the presence of rats (Rattus sp.), the most common invasive mammal on the UK's islands. The dog must be trained to locate the target species by indicating sign, scent, live or dead animal, and must be trained to not react to non-target species. The dog will not be used to control the target species. The Contractor will be responsible for selecting, assessing and training one (1) dog that will obtain an interim certificate (see below) through an assessment carried out by an independent specialist. Not all puppies will be suitable for training as a conservation detection dog, and not all dogs in training will obtain the necessary skills and qualities to achieve an interim certificate. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to obtain a sufficient number of puppies to train to result in one (1) trained and certified dog. Following the interim certification, the Contractor will assist in pairing the dog with a dedicated handler
