## Summary

The Scottish Police Authority has completed a procurement process concerning the provision of police dogs, titled "Requirements for Police Dogs - Negotiated Procedure". Initially advertised as an open tender, this process transitioned to a restricted procedure after no bids were submitted under the original notice. The contract was awarded on 3rd August 2021, for a total value of £55,000, and the relevant address for correspondence is located at 1 Pacific Quay, 2nd Floor, Glasgow, UK. The procurement falls under the goods category within the public order and safety industry and has been classified with code 35811200.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for companies engaged in the supply of animal services and equipment, especially those with experience in law enforcement contexts. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this an advantageous bidding opportunity, particularly those similar to the awarded suppliers—Vonwolf K9, Bestway Wholesale, and Lion Safety Ltd. Businesses with capabilities in delivering high-quality canine services and associated goods are well-positioned to grow through participation in such contracts.
