Logistics and FOB-Origin Delivery

The contract governs the coordination of shipping services under FOB origin terms, requiring full responsibility for carrier selection, freight documentation, and delivery scheduling from the point of origin to the designated destination. The subcontractor must manage all logistical elements prior to the goods leaving the origin location, ensuring compliance with transportation standards and timely delivery while maintaining accountability for accurate shipping records and coordination with carriers. Performance is tied to the place of performance in Tracy, California, with a zip code of 95304-5000, indicating that while the physical delivery endpoint is specified, the obligations begin at the origin and encompass end-to-end coordination until the goods are transferred to the carrier. The contract is classified under NAICS code 488510, reflecting its focus on freight transportation arrangement services, and it is issued by the Department of Defense through its Electrical Devices Division. It was posted on July 23, 2026, with a response deadline of August 3, 2026, specifying a narrow window for proposals. The contract type is a subcontract, suggesting it is part of a broader procurement under a prime contract, and no set aside classification is indicated, meaning it is open to all eligible bidders without preference given to small businesses or other designations. All logistical activities must be executed in accordance with FOB origin terms, meaning risk and responsibility transfer to the buyer once the goods are loaded onto the carrier at the origin.
