The City of Waycross is seeking a licensed veterinarian to provide comprehensive veterinary services for the Waycross Animal Shelter through a 12-month contract beginning July 1, 2025, and potentially renewable for up to four additional years. The procurement is structured as a competitive bid process, with sealed bids labeled as Bid #FY25-09 being accepted until 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, May 20, 2025. While specific service details are not fully elaborated in the provided summary, the contract appears to require a veterinary professional to provide medical care, treatment, and potentially administrative support for animals housed in the Waycross Animal Shelter. The procurement is geographically situated in Wilcox County, Georgia, and targets a professional services contract for animal health management. Prospective bidders must be licensed veterinarians capable of delivering comprehensive animal healthcare services within a municipal shelter environment. The contract includes potential multi-year renewal options contingent upon mutual agreement and without price increases.

No specific set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise provisions, or incumbent vendor information were provided in the available documentation. The procurement does not explicitly outline budget ranges or award values for the veterinary services contract.

The opportunity appears open to qualified licensed veterinarians who can meet the City of Waycross's animal shelter service requirements. The contract's potential five-year duration (initial 12-month term with four possible renewals) suggests a desire for a stable, long-term professional services relationship with a qualified veterinary professional who can consistently support the animal shelter's medical needs.
