Description

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.
