Horsham District Council, acting as the lead procuring authority, and Crawley Borough Council are seeking tenders for a Stray Dog Collection and Kennelling Service. The procurement follows an Open Procedure under the UK Procurement Act 2023, with the contract scheduled to commence on April 1, 2027. The initial term is for two years, ending March 31, 2029, with an option to extend for an additional two years via two 12-month periods based on performance and the Council's discretion. The service is divided into lots, and suppliers may bid for Lot 1, Lot 2, or both. The estimated value for the Crawley Borough Council lot is 120,000 GBP including VAT, though the Council does not guarantee specific volumes or values due to annual fluctuations.
