Barcoding and Item Identification Services

The contract requires the application of standardized barcodes including USSC-128 and GS1 DataBar, along with physical markings designated as RQ017, to items and containers to encode critical logistics data such as the National Stock Number, Contract Line Item Number, contract identifier, and shipment details. This ensures accurate tracking and identification throughout the defense supply chain, aligning with Department of Defense standards for uniform item labeling and inventory management. The work is performed under a subcontract tied to the Defense Logistics Agency and falls under the NAICS code 561499 for other support services. All labeling must strictly adhere to the specified barcode formats and physical marking requirements to guarantee interoperability across military logistics systems. The contract supports end-to-end traceability of materiel from procurement through distribution, enabling efficient receipt, storage, and issue of defense-supplied goods. Performance is expected to meet the operational demands of the Department of Defense without specified geographic constraints, as the place of performance is not defined, suggesting potential nationwide or global execution based on logistical needs. The solicitation was posted in June 2026 and is accessible through the DIBBS system for related award records.
