The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is conducting a market survey to assess vendor interest and capability for Off-Range Pasture and Corral Services in Utah. This initiative seeks to establish a facility for holding between 200 and 2,000 wild burros on private land, providing humane care and management during their temporary stay. Vendors are expected to supply land, necessary facilities, feed, and general animal welfare services, including monitoring health, maintaining corral conditions, and managing animal movements.
The anticipated contract will be a firm-fixed price Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) with a base year and four options. Interested parties must respond by February 14, 2025, including essential company details and demonstrating their qualifications. The BLM emphasizes that this survey does not constitute an invitation for bids or proposals, and submission of information is voluntary and at the vendor's expense. The primary focus is to identify suitable providers capable of fulfilling these specific service requirements while adhering to the small business size standard for the relevant NAICS code.
