Description
The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a small‑business contractor to provide specialized goose‑management services on the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center grounds in Milwaukee, WI. The work relies on trained Border Collie dogs to herd geese, includes egg‑depredation mitigation, and requires weekly visits (up to two per day, seven days a week) for roughly 40 weeks per year. The award will be a firm‑fixed‑price contract with a base year and up to four one‑year extensions, fully set‑aside for small businesses with additional credit for SDVOSB/VOSB firms. The prime contractor remains responsible for performance, even if subcontractors are used, and must meet experience, permit, and certification requirements.
• Provide Border Collie herding services to control Canadian geese on VA property.
• Demonstrate ≥ 3 years of similar wildlife‑control experience and hold a current Wisconsin egg‑depredation permit (or use subcontractor documentation).
• Submit a Quality‑Control Plan within 10 days of award and monthly service reports within 7 days of each visit.
• Comply with VA security, background‑check, and record‑keeping regulations; all invoices must be filed electronically via Tungsten Network.
