U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is conducting market research for a total‑small‑business set‑aside contract (NAICS 112920) to provide horse‑boarding services for four agency‑owned horses at a location near Columbia Falls, MT. The anticipated contract will have a one‑year base period (April 1 2026 – March 31 2027) with up to four one‑year options. CBP seeks information on vendor capability, NAICS code usage, business size, immediate start‑up ability, and a per‑horse‑per‑month pricing structure. Key requirements include a suitable facility with a 50‑ft‑diameter round pen (provided by Border Patrol), a hitching rail positioned 20‑60 ft from the pen (to be installed by the vendor), and at least 100 sq ft of covered, preferably concrete‑floored space for a contract farrier. The vendor must be able to remove snow by 7:00 a.m. after any snowfall exceeding three inches and maintain private access roads for four‑wheel‑drive vehicles pulling a 24‑ft horse trailer. Veterinary services are excluded from pricing. Responses—limited to company name, address, UEI, point of contact, NAICS confirmation, and the items above—must be submitted by email to Contracting Officer Starla VanWinkle no later than 2:00 p.m. ET, March 16 2026.
