Tender description

THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION Leicester City Council is reviewing our Pet Boarding service as part of our recommissioning process. It is anticipated, dependent upon an engagement exercise, that tenders for this service would be sought in 10/2026, to enable a new contract to begin from 01/10/2027, immediately after the end of our current contract. As part of the commissioning process, the authority is undertaking a soft market test. This gives potential providers and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and share their views on the potential service model and specification principles. The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification. This process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in the letting of a Contract. The authority is using this process solely to test the market, gather information, and ascertain the level of interest in this particular service. There are therefore no formal criteria which we will use to judge your responses, and it is not our intention to provide any feedback. Keywords: Pet Boarding , Stray Dogs, Kennelling Services

About the buyer

Leicester City Council buys as a local authority. Some contracts run through outside frameworks, including ESPO and the Government Commercial Agency. Suppliers apply to those bodies directly to become approved framework suppliers. Supplier selection also weighs social value, such as local job creation and environmental impact, alongside price.

Over the past 5 years, most of Leicester City Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
