Solicitation # 20155228
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection, under the Department of Homeland Security, is soliciting quotes for up to 33 detection canines to support training operations at the Field Operations Canine Academy in Front Royal, Virginia. This solicitation is a full small business set-aside under NAICS code 112990 with a $2.75 million size standard, and it follows the Federal Acquisition Regulation under Parts 12 and 13, with no written solicitation issued.

Failure to comply with submission guidelines disqualifies the quote. Evaluation occurs in three phases: Phase I is a pass/fail review of breed conformity and availability within 60 days of the purchase order date; failure in either results in automatic exclusion. Phase II applies a trade-off methodology prioritizing open order status, past performance with CBP, and then price, among remaining offerors. Phase III requires the top-ranked vendor to deliver all canines for in-person medical, physical, and behavioral evaluation at the Front Royal facility; the contractor bears all shipping costs. Canines failing evaluation are rejected at the vendor’s expense, and the contractor must remove them within seven days. CBP reserves the right to terminate the order without cost if no canines pass evaluation, and will resolicit.

Proposals will be evaluated in three phases: Phase I is a pass/fail assessment of breed conformity and availability within 60 days of the purchase order date; any failure here disqualifies the offeror. Phase II is a trade-off evaluation ranking offerors based first on open order status, then past performance with CBP over the last three years, and finally price, with the top-ranked offeror moving to Phase III. Phase III requires the selected vendor to transport the full quantity of canines to the Field Operations Canine Academy in Front Royal, Virginia, for comprehensive medical, physical, and behavioral evaluation against the Statement of Work. The contractor bears all costs related to shipping, retrieval, and replacement if the canines fail inspection.

The purchase order is firm-fixed-price, and only the designated Contracting Officer has authority to modify terms, accept nonconforming work, or obligate funds. The contractor must assume all financial responsibility for returning any canines that fail evaluation within seven days of notification and bears all associated expenses. No award will be made unless the canines fully meet technical requirements, and failure in Phase III results in termination of the purchase order for convenience with no cost to the government, followed by resolicitation.
