Domestic and International Freight & Delivery Logistics

The contract entails the transportation of an assembled kit from its origin to the U.S. Naval Station in National City, California, requiring a combination of domestic trucking and potential ocean transit via U.S.-flagged vessels to meet security and regulatory requirements. The scope covers end-to-end logistics including handling, scheduling, and delivery confirmation, ensuring the kit arrives intact and on time under strict compliance with Department of Defense protocols. The carrier must be capable of coordinating multimodal moves with full traceability and adherence to federal transportation standards, particularly for defense-related cargo. This is a subcontract under the Department of Defense’s Fluid Handling Division, classified under NAICS code 484121 for general freight trucking, with a response deadline of August 3, 2026. The solicitation is posted on the DIBBS platform with no set-aside designation, meaning it is open to all eligible contractors regardless of business size or status. The performance location is fixed at National City, CA, and all transport must comply with U.S. maritime laws, necessitating the use of American-flagged ships for any ocean leg. Timing, security, and documentation are critical, with no room for delay or noncompliance given the military nature of the destination.
