Domestic and International Shipping & Logistics (FOB Origin, Overseas Delivery)

The contract requires the arrangement and execution of FOB Origin shipping for a spacer plate destined for USS ASHLAND LSD 48 at FPO AP 96660, with all transportation to be conducted using U.S.-flag vessels unless a waiver is granted. The shipping must comply with domestic and international logistics standards under an FOB Origin term, meaning the seller is responsible for delivering the goods to a designated U.S. port or point of departure, after which risk and responsibility transfer to the buyer. The NAICS code 488510 indicates this is a contract related to freight transportation arrangement services, underscoring the focus on logistics coordination rather than physical hauling. The contract is classified as a subcontract under the Department of Defense, managed by the Defense Logistics Agency, and is set to be awarded following a solicitation process initiated on June 25, 2026. The place of performance and point of contact details are not specified, suggesting the logistics execution may span multiple locations with flexibility in delivery routing, provided the final destination remains the specified military vessel.
