Solicitation # 191NLE26R0067
The Department of State’s Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is seeking a contractor to provide comprehensive freight forwarding and warehousing services in support of the Gang Suppression Force mission in Haiti under solicitation 191NLE26R0067. The contract requires end-to-end logistics management for air and ground shipments transporting critical materials including aircraft parts, ammunition, law enforcement equipment, hazardous materials, and vehicles between Miami, Florida—the administrative and operational hub—and Port-au-Prince, Haiti, with performance potentially extending to other international destinations. The requirement is structured as a fixed-price indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with a one-year base period from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, and options for up to five years total including extensions under FAR 52.217-8 and 52.217-9. The annual value is capped at $3 million with a guaranteed minimum of $20,000 per year, and all orders will be issued as firm fixed-price task orders with no post-award price adjustments. Delivery is FOB destination, and the contractor must handle all aspects of customs clearance, packaging, marking, vehicle preparation, hazmat handling, and weight certification using NIST-certified scales, while ensuring compliance with strict packaging standards to prevent damage, water exposure, or insect infestation. Proposals are due by 5:00 PM EST on August 21, 2026, and must be submitted via email in two separate volumes—a technical proposal limited to 50 pages excluding cover letter and resumes, and a cost/price proposal using the provided pricing schedule with all figures in U.S. dollars. Submission must follow strict formatting rules including 12-point Times New Roman or Arial font, one-inch margins, and no reduced print. The evaluation is based on a best-value trade-off, not low-price technically acceptable, weighing factors including mandatory DDTC/ITAR certification, experience in freight forwarding, expertise in ITAR/DUSD cargo, and operational experience in high-risk or conflict areas. The solicitation is a full 8(a) set-aside for small businesses, and offerors must self-certify as small businesses and hold a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI). Contractors must also comply with extensive special requirements including trafficking-in-persons compliance plans with training, recruitment fee prohibitions, housing standards, subcontractor oversight
