Description

Warwickshire Police has an ongoing requirement for Secure Boarding of Dangerous/Seized dogs and associated services. The current contract is due to expire in September 2026. Secure Boarding of Dangerous/Seized dogs is a niche market with relatively few providers. The Force has previously failed to identify enough suppliers to run a full competition. As such, prior to commencing a full procurement procedure, we wish to conduct a preliminary market engagement to assess if there have been any changes in the last 5 years and if sufficient providers exist that could tender for the requirement. We would therefore like to invite suppliers to provide a summary of their relevant experience in this field. All expressions of interest should me made via the Warwickshire Police In-tend tendering portal accessible via the In-tend Bluelight Hub: https://sell2.in-tend.co.uk/blpd/home. You can view the tender details via the `Tenders` tab. However to view the procurement documents you must register/ log in. To register please go to the `Portals` section and select Warwickshire Police to get to our tender portal. If you are already registered, simply log in and go the `Tenders` section to access the tender and the documents. Any questions relating to this procurement procedure must be made via the Correspondence function on the In-tend portal.
