The contract, valued at £200,000, involves multiple lots, allowing suppliers to bid on specific services such as collection and kennelling within and outside core working hours, and includes handling both restricted and non-restricted breeds under the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. The awarded suppliers are Bromsgrove District Council and Fir Tree Pets Hotel. The procurement was carried out using an open procedure, with the tender process being active from 11th June 2024 to 9th July 2024 and awarded on 19th August 2024. This tender presents significant opportunities for various businesses, especially those specialising in animal care, transport, and kennelling services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts due to the flexible lot structure. Winning a lot can provide stable, long-term revenue while enhancing the supplier's portfolio and reputation in the public sector. The geographic coverage requirement also means local businesses within North Somerset or neighbouring areas have a logistical advantage. ## Notice North Somerset Council is tendering for the provision of kennelling, collection and handling of stray dogs for a period of 24 months with the option to extend for a further 24 months. The contract covers the whole geographic area of North Somerset, and therefore suppliers should ensure that they are prepared to cover the service throughout the district at the rates they have provided. The contract has been split into four different lots: * Lot 1 - Collection and Kennelling of Stray and Care Act dogs within core working hours - not including prohibited breeds under Section 1 Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. * Lot 2 - Providing a reception point for Stray and Care Act Dogs outside core working hours (including public holidays) - not including prohibited breeds under Section 1 Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. * Lot 3 - Collection and Kennelling of Stray and Care Act Dogs within core working hours - Including prohibited breeds under Section 1 Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 * Lot 4 - Providing a reception point for Stray and Care Act Dogs outside core working hours (including public holidays) - Including prohibited breeds under Section 1 Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. Suppliers can bid for one or more Lots. The council will award one contract per Lot. This may be to one supplier, covering all Lots, or multiple suppliers. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/dc336c72-c0c8-40c8-a1d5-f29e36020891 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large, SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Oct 2024 | | Submission deadline | 9 Jul 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Aug 2024 | | Contract period | 31 Aug 2024 - 31 Aug 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £200,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £200,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NORTH SOMERSET COUNCIL | | Locality | WESTON-SUPER-MARE | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS23 1UJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK6 North Somerset, Somerset and Dorset | | ITL 3 | TLK61 North Somerset | | Local authority | North Somerset | | Electoral ward | Weston-super-Mare Central | | Westminster constituency | Weston-super-Mare | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 2 | | Supplier names | BROMSGROVE DISTRICT COUNCIL; FIR TREE PETS HOTEL | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 98380000 - Dog kennel services ## Release History - 1 Oct 2024 at 12:27 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/dc336c72-c0c8-40c8-a1d5-f29e36020891 - 11 Jun 2024 at 16:24 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5add52f8-4756-4a9a-a171-a19c1a2c66b0 - 11 Jun 2024 at 16:18 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a10c0a08-0ce1-4e8d-ae55-31ef656e7080 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/dc336c72-c0c8-40c8-a1d5-f29e36020891 1st October 2024 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5add52f8-4756-4a9a-a171-a19c1a2c66b0 11th June 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a10c0a08-0ce1-4e8d-ae55-31ef656e7080 11th June 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=b3a630d0-9693-ee11-8125-005056b64545 Advert - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=735cf6f1-0b28-ef11-812c-005056b64545&p=696a9836-1895-e511-8105-000c29c9ba21 Advert ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
