Attachment 3 -Canine Proposal.xlsx

The file is an Excel spreadsheet (Attachment 3 - Canine Proposal.xlsx) related to a Request for Quote (RFQ) for Single Purpose Detection Canines issued by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The solicitation seeks 5 canines for the Border Patrol K9 Center in El Paso, TX, with a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 112990. The procurement will be executed as a firm-fixed-price purchase order, with quotes due by March 28th, 2025 at 10:00 AM EST.

The evaluation process involves a three-phase approach: Phase I is a pass/fail assessment of breed conformance and availability date, Phase II ranks offerors based on open orders, past performance, and pricing, and Phase III involves a physical evaluation of canines at the CBP location. The top-ranked offeror will be issued a Notice to Proceed and required to deliver canines for medical, physical, and behavioral assessment. Successful vendors must provide canines meeting specific requirements outlined in the Statement of Work, with the government reserving the right to continue evaluating subsequent ranked offerors if initial submissions do not meet standards.
