Animal Ordering and Delivery
Animal Ordering and Delivery
Animals from several approved commercial vendors can be imported directly into the DCM Facility. Ordering from approved animal vendors is a streamlined process through e-Sirius/Cayuse. Once your order has been entered in Cayuse, the DCM Business Office makes the necessary arrangements with the vendor and DCM Husbandry staff for your animals' shipping, receipt, and housing.
The DCM Business office orders animals weekly. Orders must be received by Wednesday at 4:00 pm to be included in the following week's shipment. Principal Investigators are responsible for checking their orders on the day of arrival and notifying the Business Office of any discrepancies to ensure proper credit or replacement.

Animal order and delivery days are subject to change based on vendor availability and holidays. Please contact the Business Office at 202-687-2488 for specific questions.
