Bar-Coded Shipping Marking (BSM) & MIL-STD-129 Labeling

The contract requires the production and application of durable, machine-readable Bar-Coded Shipping Marking (BSM) labels in full compliance with MIL-STD-129 standards, ensuring all shipments are properly identified for military logistics. Each label must include critical data elements such as the National Stock Number (NSN), contract number, Contract Line Item Number (CLIN), and the special marking code 32-32 Type I, which is essential for tracking and inventory management across the Department of Defense supply chain. The labeling must withstand environmental conditions during transport and storage while remaining scannable by standard military and civilian barcode readers. This subcontract, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency under the NAICS code 323111, is part of a broader effort to standardize and automate shipment identification across DoD operations. The work must be performed to exact specifications to ensure interoperability with existing logistics systems, and failure to meet the MIL-STD-129 requirements could result in shipment rejection or delays. The contract was posted on July 21, 2026, and is linked to award number SPE8E626V1850, indicating it is part of an active procurement initiative focused on maintaining supply chain integrity through precise, durable labeling solutions.
