What is being bought

Published requirement description

Northumbria Police have a need for increased kennelling capacity in order to meet current and predicted demand.

Demand for kennels for dangerous dogs is undoubtedly set to increase as changes in legislation approach, specifically linked to the XL Bully breed. If the legislation is implemented as expected this will place demand beyond the current capacity of our kennel estate.

Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: Northumbria Police have an urgent requirement to increase their current dog kennelling capacity. The Force has approached all North East dog kennels to check their capacity and to compare costs. All dog kennels, with exception to one, have confirmed that they have no additional capacity to host dangerous dogs. The Force has approached the only supplier who confirmed they have capacity.
The Force will undergo a standstill period as part of voluntary ex ante transparency notice.
To protect the supplier and their premises the Force will not announce in the public domain their name or address
