CBP Untrained Canine – Detection, Field Office K9 Center - FOK9 – Front Royal, VAThe U.S. Customs and Border Protection is seeking up to 27 detection canines through a small business set-aside solicitation under NAICS code 112990, with a size standard of $2.75 million, for delivery to the Field Operations Canine Academy in Front Royal, Virginia. The solicitation is conducted under FAR Parts 12 and 13, with quotations due by July 24, 2026, and is strictly for small businesses; no large business offers will be considered. Offers must be submitted via email with a specified subject line and completed Attachment 3, and any non-compliance with formatting or submission requirements will result in disqualification. The government will evaluate submissions in three phases: Phase I is a pass/fail assessment of breed conformance and availability within 60 days of the purchase order date; only those passing both criteria proceed. Phase II evaluates open order status, past performance with CBP over the prior three years, and then price, with preference given to vendors with no outstanding deliveries and a history of successful past performance. The highest-ranked vendor will move to Phase III, where all contracted canines must physically present for medical, behavioral, and physical evaluations per the Statement of Work. Canines that fail evaluation will be returned at the vendor’s expense, and failure to deliver acceptable animals may result in contract termination without penalty to the government. Payment must be submitted electronically through the IPP system, and all contractual obligations are binding only upon issuance of a formal purchase order by the authorized Contracting Officer.

Phase II uses a trade-off approach to rank qualified offerors first by open order status, then by past performance with CBP over the prior three years, and finally by price for offerors with comparable technical scores. Phase III requires the top-ranked offeror to deliver all animals to the specified location for comprehensive medical, physical, and behavioral evaluations per the Statement of Work. The contractor bears all transportation, shipping, and return costs, and must remove any non-conforming canines within seven days of notification. Failure to meet evaluation standards at any phase results in rejection and termination of the purchase order, with no government liability.
