## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council is seeking tenders for the contract titled "CT0615 - Kennelling for Pets (Re-tender)", which falls under the industry category of dog kennel services. This procurement process, currently in the active tender stage, prioritises the establishment of suitable kennelling arrangements for pets belonging to individuals temporarily housed due to homelessness. The tender period is set to conclude on 10 November 2021, with award decisions anticipated to follow the bid opening scheduled for the same day.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in animal care and kennelling services. Companies that can provide high-quality boarding solutions that meet the regulatory and comfort standards for a variety of pets, including dogs and small animals, would be particularly well-suited to compete. With a focus on ensuring the well-being of pets, this contract may attract businesses that can demonstrate strong capabilities in providing safe and nurturing environments for animals while meeting the operational targets outlined by the Council.

## Notice

The City of Edinburgh Council has a statutory duty to look after a client's personal belongings whilst they take temporary accommodation due to homelessness. This extends to an individual's pet. The service does not currently allow pets to be taken into temporary accommodation properties so in order to make provision for the kennelling of cats, dogs and other pets the Council is required to make suitable arrangements to provide kennelling services, until individuals are able to care for their pets again.
