description
The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) is undertaking preliminary market engagement in advance of a forthcoming procurement for the supply and delivery of feed, forage, bedding and stable requisites for the Mounted Branch.
The Mounted Branch operates across three sites-Great Scotland Yard, Hyde Park and the Mounted Training Establishment (Imber Court)-supporting approximately 60 horses.
The requirement includes the provision of goods necessary for the day-to-day care and welfare of operational police horses, including:
Forage (e.g. hay and haylage)
Feed and nutritional supplements
Bedding materials
Stable requisites, including general equipment and consumables used in stable operations
Deliveries will be required across all sites, with higher volumes anticipated at Imber Court. The Authority is considering both regular weekly deliveries and reduced-frequency, higher-volume deliveries where operationally feasible.
This market engagement exercise is intended to gather information on supplier capability, delivery models, pricing structures and potential efficiencies to inform and shape the procurement approach.
The MPS is currently considering the use of the Competitive Flexible Procedure under the Procurement Act 2023 for the forthcoming procurement.
