Tender description

COMPETITION OUTLINE:- The UCD Veterinary Hospital sees approximately 10,000 cases annually across all disciplines. During the normal course of business not all patients have favourable outcomes during and after treatments. In this instance the UCD Veterinary Hospital understands how difficult it can be to lose a pet and assists patients owners in saying goodbye. The hospital wishes to appoint a contractor who can provide a pet cremation service to our clients. The tender requires the collection of animal remains from the School of Veterinary Medicine and their transportation to the selected crematorium. The successful provider will be responsible for conducting the cremation and offering memorial and personalisation services as requested by clients of the UCD Veterinary Hospital. All services must be carried out by organisations in full compliance with the ADR (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road).

About the buyer

University College Dublin is a higher education institution, and its Procurement and Purchasing Function runs tendering for the whole university. Budget holders across the university draft specifications and sit on evaluation teams before any tender goes out. The Office of Government Procurement and the Education Procurement Service sometimes run tenders on UCD's behalf. Above the EU threshold, tenders run as a full EU-wide procedure rather than a national one.

Over the past 5 years, most of UCD's contract awards have been in laboratory and precision equipment, software and information systems and office and computing equipment.
