Attachment 2 -Canine Proposal.xlsx

This document is a Request for Quote (RFQ) from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for six single-purpose detection canines for the Office of Training and Development (OTD) Field Office K9 Center in Front Royal, VA. The solicitation is 100% set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 112990, with a size standard of $2.75M, and seeks canines through a phased evaluation process that includes breed conformance, availability, past performance, and a final physical and behavioral evaluation of the canines.

The RFQ requires vendors to submit a completed proposal spreadsheet by July 17th, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST, with the award to be determined using a trade-off method considering non-price and price factors. The top-ranked offeror will receive a Notice to Proceed (NTP) to deliver canines for medical, physical, and behavioral assessment, with the potential for a firm-fixed-price purchase order if at least one canine passes CBP's rigorous evaluation criteria. Transportation and associated costs for canine shipment and potential return are the vendor's responsibility, and CBP reserves the right to continue evaluating subsequent ranked offerors if initial submissions do not meet requirements.
