GS1-128 Bar Coding and Shipment Marking

The contract requires the generation and application of GS1-128 barcodes on unit packs and shipping containers in full compliance with MIL-STD-129 standards, ensuring each item is accurately marked with the National Stock Number, contract number, and Quantity Utilization Point. This work is critical for defense logistics and must be performed to precise specifications to enable seamless tracking, inventory management, and delivery of military supplies. All labeling must adhere strictly to the required format and placement guidelines to ensure compatibility with automated scanning systems throughout the supply chain. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 323111 and is issued by the Department of Defense through the San Diego office, with performance required at the location specified by ZIP code 92136-3581. The solicitation was posted on July 16, 2026, and responses are due by July 21, 2026, indicating a tight turnaround for interested parties to submit proposals. The absence of set-aside designation suggests the opportunity is open to all eligible subcontractors without socioeconomic preferences, and the focus remains on technical compliance, accuracy, and timely execution of barcode labeling for defense shipments.
