## Summary

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council has completed the procurement process for the provision of kennelling services for stray dogs across the Greater Manchester Combined Authorities. The tender, titled "Kennelling of Stray Dogs," was initially set out as an above-threshold ITT but resulted in non-compliant bids, prompting an urgent direct award to Manchester & Cheshire Dogs Home under regulation 32. The awarded contract commences on 2nd September 2024 and runs until 1st September 2026, with an option for a further two-year extension in annual increments. This contract, valued at £26,000, falls under the services category with a CPV classification of 'Dog kennel services'. The contract's award was published on 19th December 2024.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in animal welfare and kennel services to align themselves with municipal contracts, potentially leading to future collaborations with local authorities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) particularly stand to benefit, given the suitability and scale of the procurement. The awarded company, Manchester & Cheshire Dogs Home, exemplifies the type of business well-suited for such tenders, highlighting a precedent for SMEs to secure public sector contracts through direct awards in urgent procurement scenarios.

## 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.
