Domestic and International Transportation of Defense Supplies

The contract requires the transportation of defense-related supplies from origin to a U.S. destination under FOB Origin terms, ensuring full compliance with DLAD C19/C20 and DFARS shipping regulations. This subcontract, issued by the ASC Commodities Division under the Department of Defense, is designated for the movement of items governed by stringent defense logistics standards, with the final delivery point located in San Diego, California, at zip code 92136-3581. The NAICS code 484220 indicates the scope pertains to heavy and tractor-trailer truck transportation, reflecting the nature of the freight involved. All parties must meet federal defense shipping mandates, including documentation, tracking, and handling protocols specified under DFARS to ensure security and traceability throughout the supply chain. Responses are due by July 14, 2026, with the solicitation posted on July 6, 2026, providing a narrow eight-day window for interested subcontractors to submit proposals. The contract does not specify a set-aside type, indicating it is open to all qualified entities regardless of business size or ownership status. The transportation services must be performed in alignment with Defense Logistics Agency directives and may involve both domestic and international legs of transit, though delivery must conclude at the designated U.S. location. All shipments require precise adherence to origin-point ownership transfer rules, meaning the buyer assumes responsibility once goods are loaded at the origin, and carriers must maintain full regulatory compliance from pickup through final delivery.
