Massachusetts Environmental Police Large Animal Response Drugs

The Massachusetts Environmental Police is seeking to procure two proprietary compounded drugs, specifically xylazine and tolazoline, for large animal response purposes with a focus on immobilization and reversal of moose and white-tailed deer. This procurement is being conducted through a Notice of Intent (NOI) with the goal of determining if alternative qualified vendors can provide these specialized veterinary pharmaceutical compounds. The intended contract duration is four years with three potential one-year renewal options. Interested vendors must demonstrate their qualifications and ability to provide high-concentrated compounded drugs by submitting documentation electronically through the COMMBUYS system by the response deadline of 6:00 PM EST on December 13, 2024. The procurement process requires vendors to prove they can match the exact specifications of the drugs currently sourced from Reliant Compounded Solutions, with the Environmental Police emphasizing an open, fair, and competitive procurement approach. Evaluation will likely focus on a vendor's ability to precisely replicate the proprietary drug formulations and meet the specific requirements for large animal response drug protocols.

While the documents do not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent organizations, the procurement appears open to qualified pharmaceutical and compounding vendors who can meet the technical specifications. There are no mentioned disadvantaged enterprise requirements or preferences in the provided documentation. The current incumbent vendor is Reliant Compounded Solutions, and no specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the procurement documents. The procurement requires standard Massachusetts state vendor compliance, including completion of forms such as the Prompt Pay Discount Form, Standard Contract Form, Electronic Funds Transfer Authorization, Contractor Authorized Signatory Listing, and W-9 Substitute Form. Vendors will need to demonstrate technical capability, compliance with state procurement regulations, and the ability to provide the exact pharmaceutical compounds required for wildlife management purposes.
