This solicitation is for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to provide explosive detection canines and passenger screening canines to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) over a 5-year period. The TSA is seeking quotes from vendors to provide canines across four classifications: EDC Basic, PSC Basic, PSC Ready, and PSC Advanced. Vendors must meet strict medical and evaluation requirements for the canines, including radiographic screening and a full physical exam.
