Domestic and International Hazardous Materials Transportation

The contract involves the domestic and international transportation of hazardous and sensitive materials using surface and sea methods, with strict adherence to U.S.-flag vessel requirements and all applicable ocean transport regulations. All operations must meet rigorous safety and compliance standards to ensure the secure handling and movement of regulated cargo across multiple jurisdictions. The performance location is designated as Portsmouth, with a zip code of 03801-5000, indicating the primary operational hub, though activities will extend beyond this point to include global routes. This subcontract, classified under NAICS code 484220 for specialized freight trucking, is issued by the Department of Defense through its Land Supply Chain office. The solicitation was posted on July 21, 2026, with a response deadline of August 3, 2026, leaving limited time for qualified vendors to submit proposals. Compliance with federal maritime and hazardous materials laws is mandatory, and bidders must demonstrate proven experience in transporting sensitive cargo under similar conditions. The opportunity does not specify a set-aside status, meaning all eligible contractors may compete, but must be prepared to meet the stringent logistical, regulatory, and security demands inherent to DoD-related hazardous material transit.
