NAICS: 812910
Scope: Federal

SOLE SOURCE Procurement of two (2) fully trained Border Collies from Kuykendall Border Collies, LLC to Perform Wildlife Damage Management for the Hokuala Resort K9 Project Project H?k?ala Resort K9 Hazing Project General Information 1.0 Scope of Work Provide a brief statement of the overall project, including goals and objectives.

The H?k?ala Resort is a property adjacent to Lihue Airport, the Part-139 airport servicing the island of Kauai.

The presence of the Hawaiian goose or n?n? (Branta sandvicensis) poses considerable bird aircraft strike hazard risk to the daily operations at the airport, threatening human health and safety.

The mission of the H?k?ala Resort K9 Hazing Project is to reduce the presence and numbers of n?n? using the land and airspace surrounding the airport to increase traveler safety and minimize property damage costs.

Border collies are the only K9 approved by the U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service to perform hazing actions on the n?n?.

Because of the optics and restrictions of the popular and heavily trafficked H?k?ala Resort, traditional hazing methods are not approved for use on the property.

Contractor Requirements 3.0 Technical Requirements / Tasks USDA Wildlife Services Hawai`i requests a single source vendor for the acquisition of two American Border Collie Association (ABCA) certified and trained K9s.

Please see the Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC), Attachment A and Attachment B.

Per the U.

Fish and Wildlife Service Environmental Assessment for the H?k?ala Resort project, ABCA certified and trained K9s only are approved for hazing the ESA-listed n?n?.

Because Hawai’i is rabies free, there is State of Hawai`i law requiring a rabies titer be conducted on the K9 120 days before it can be admitted into the state.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
