Description

The County seeks qualified vendors to provide police service dogs on an as-needed basis for patrol/apprehension and single-purpose narcotics detection, explosives detection, cadaver detection, and tracking. Vendors must make at least 10 canines available for selection across suitable breeds. Dogs must generally be 16–36 months old, have verifiable lineage and age records, and demonstrate basic obedience and search-command training through a recognized working- or sporting-dog organization. Certification, medical records, and vaccination documentation are required. Selected dogs must pass a County-authorized veterinary examination. The vendor must be within 100 miles of Orange County, California, and provide a one-year no-cost replacement or refund for specified genetically caused debilitating illnesses, plus a no-cost retraining or replacement provision for qualifying behavioral or performance issues. The contract is for purchases as needed, with five separately priced dog categories. The solicitation also requires references and extensive supplier information in the electronic response. Insurance certificates and a W-9 are due only after award notification; the model contract states that insurance is not required if a common carrier makes deliveries. The proposed contract term is three calendar years from execution.
