## Summary

Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council has completed a public procurement contracting process for the kennelling of stray dogs within the Greater Manchester Combined Authorities region. Following a non-compliant bid situation during the initial tender, an urgent direct award was issued to Manchester & Cheshire Dogs Home under regulation 32. The contract, valued at £40,000, covers dog kennel services (CPV code 98380000) and spans from 2nd September 2024 to 1st September 2026, with the potential for extension by another two years if needed. This procurement, completed under the 'Direct award' method, reflects a proactive approach to maintain service continuity.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses providing dog kennel services, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). With a structured timeframe and defined service requirements, businesses specializing in pet care or animal services could expand their service offerings and strengthen their partnership with local government bodies. The contract's provision for extension also offers room for sustained business growth and long-term planning. Prospective bidders should ideally be familiar with regulatory standards and capable of swift, compliant service delivery to maximize the benefits of this opportunity.

## Notice

After an above threshold ITT was issued for the creation of a seized dogs framework for use across the Greater Manchester Combined Authorities. The framework agreement was not put into place due to non compliant bids, and due to the urgent nature of the services, a direct award was issued to Manchester & Cheshire Dogs Home under regulation 32. The initial contract period is for a two year term, with the option to extend for a further 2 years in annual increments.
