Solicitation # 2027K9BPA
The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) under solicitation number 2027K9BPA to conduct market research for a future Blanket Purchase Agreement. The objective is to identify vendors capable of providing untrained single-purpose detection canines to the Border Patrol Canine Academy (BPK9) in El Paso, Texas, and the Field Operations Canine Academy (FOK9) in Front Royal, Virginia. This RFI is for planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal request for proposals or a commitment to contract. Interested respondents must submit a concise capability statement, limited to two pages, by 12:00 pm EDT on October 27, 2026, detailing their company information, executive summary, relevant experience, and risk management practices. The anticipated requirements specify that canines must be between 10 and 36 months of age and belong to approved working breeds such as German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, or Dutch Shepherds. Candidates must pass a rigorous three-phase evaluation consisting of pre-screening, medical evaluation, and behavioral assessment. Critical medical standards include a negative result for zoonotic diseases and heartworm, as well as normal gait and joint health. Behaviorally, canines must demonstrate high prey and retrieve drives and a stable temperament. The contractor will be responsible for all transportation costs and must adhere to a six-month warranty for pre-existing conditions or behavioral issues. Additionally, all personnel delivering canines are subject to CBP short-term vetting and must obtain an Access Memorandum prior to entry.
