Attachment 2 -Canine Proposal.xlsx

This document is a Request for Quote (RFQ) for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) seeking untrained single-purpose detection canines for the Field Office K9 Center in Front Royal, Virginia. The solicitation is 100% set aside for small businesses and seeks up to twelve canines, with a North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code of 112990 and a size standard of $2.75M. The government will award a firm-fixed-price purchase order using a phased evaluation approach that includes breed conformance, availability date, open orders, past performance, and a final canine evaluation.

The quote submission deadline is June 30, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST, with quotes to be emailed to danielle.brandaolacerda@cbp.dhs.gov. The evaluation process includes three phases: Phase I (pass/fail for breed and availability), Phase II (trade-off ranking of non-price and price factors), and Phase III (physical inspection of canines). The top-ranked offeror will receive a Notice to Proceed and be required to deliver canines to the Front Royal, VA location for medical, physical, and behavioral evaluation. The estimated Notice to Proceed will be issued within 30 days of the solicitation close, with the goal of selecting a vendor who can provide acceptable canines meeting CBP's specific requirements.
