NAICS 115210 – Support Activities for Animal Production encompasses a range of specialized services that sustain livestock, poultry, and other animal farming operations without direct ownership of the animals or land. This includes veterinary services, animal health monitoring, pest and disease control, feed management, breeding assistance, manure handling, and facility maintenance tailored to agricultural production systems. In the federal contracting landscape, this NAICS supports mission-critical animal care programs within USDA, DHS, and other agencies involved in food safety, biosecurity, research, and livestock-based emergency response. Contractors in this space often provide technical expertise in zoonotic disease prevention, animal welfare compliance, and sustainable husbandry practices aligned with federal agricultural and environmental standards. The only identified contractor in this sector is IMYAWB CONSULTING LLC, a small business specializing in agricultural support services with a focus on animal health logistics and operational consulting. The competitive landscape is highly niche, with limited prime contractors due to the specialized nature of the work and the predominance of subcontracting arrangements under larger agricultural or defense contracts. Most participants are small businesses or rural service providers with domain-specific expertise in veterinary support, livestock management, or agro-technical field services. No agency data is available for this NAICS code, though demand is likely driven by USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), the Agricultural Research Service (ARS), and potentially DHS components involved in biothreat preparedness involving livestock. These agencies require contracted support for surveillance, quarantine protocols, and research facility operations involving animal subjects. The market is characterized by low contractor density and high technical barriers to entry, creating opportunities for niche small businesses with certified veterinary, agricultural, or biosafety credentials. Procurement tends to be project-based and tied to seasonal or outbreak-response cycles, favoring agile contractors with proven compliance in animal handling, biocontainment, and federal regulatory frameworks.

This contract is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Chief-Wildlife Inspection Unit in Falls Church, Virginia, for the training, certification, and re-certification of Wildlife Inspector Canine Handler (WICH) teams. The solicitation, numbered 140FS326Q0135, is competitively awarded as a Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 115210, limited to Women-Owned Small Businesses and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses. The period of performance spans five years, beginning October 1, 2026, and ending September 30, 2031, with an optional six-month extension available. The estimated contract value does not exceed $11,000,000, though specific pricing details for line items are not provided and are to be determined through subsequent orders.

Key deliverables include the procurement, veterinary screening, and shipment of detection canines compliant with the Animal Welfare Act and IATA Live Animal Regulations; delivery of training and annual recertification programs aligned with the FWS Wildlife Inspection Canine Program Manual; maintenance of training records integrated into the LEMIS system; and operational support at airports, seaports, and mail facilities. Proposal evaluation prioritizes technical experience in WICH Team support, technical approach, management plan including identification of key personnel and subcontractors, and past performance with at least three relevant federal contracts. Price is a secondary consideration, with selection based on a trade-off process that favors superior technical merit over lower cost. Offerors must provide their Unique Entity ID, comply with clauses on whistleblower rights, anti-kickback provisions, paid sick leave, privacy training, and personal identity verification, and adhere to strict security and subcontracting requirements.

All operations must avoid a 200-meter buffer around specified roads to protect native fauna, maintain forest roads, restore the site to its original condition post-harvest, prevent environmental damage, and comply with all applicable state and federal laws, including Florida Statute §287.087.
