R--HOOF TRIMMING FOR WILD HORSES

The Bureau of Land Management Idaho State Office is soliciting hoof trimming services for wild horses located at the Bruneau Off Range Corrals. This facility is a new site where incoming horses are already accustomed to a feedlot environment and many possess recently trimmed hooves, which may lead to a reduction in service requirements during the initial six months of the first performance year. Contractors are responsible for providing all necessary equipment, including grinders and blades.

This solicitation, identified by number L15PS01206, is a total small business set-aside designated under the SBA acronym and code. The requirement falls under NAICS 115210 for Support Activities for Animal Production and PSC code R. Formal bids must be submitted by mail or hand delivery to the Bureau of Land Management office on S. Vinnell Way in Boise, as submissions delivered directly to the Bruneau facility will not be accepted.

The response deadline for this opportunity is October 23, 2015. Technical details and clarifications regarding the site were addressed during a pre-bid conference held on October 15, 2015, at the Bruneau facility. Administrative documentation for this notice includes three attachments providing additional information via FedConnect, with the most recent update published on October 16, 2015. Diane Barker serves as the primary point of contact for the procurement.
