The work is conducted under the Defense Logistics Agency, within the Department of Defense, and is classified under NAICS code 488510, indicating operations related to freight transportation arrangement, logistics support, and supply chain coordination. Performance of the contract may occur across multiple locations without a specified place of performance, requiring flexible and scalable logistics solutions to support nationwide or global Defense Department needs.
