Military-Compliant Packaging Design and Validation

The contract requires the design and validation of protective packaging systems specifically tailored for the military transportation of glass components, with strict adherence to MIL-STD-2073-1E and ASTM D4169 Distribution Cycle 18 standards. This effort focuses on ensuring the integrity and safety of sensitive glass parts throughout the full range of distribution environments encountered in military logistics, including vibration, shock, humidity, and temperature extremes. The packaging solutions must be rigorously tested and documented to meet or exceed the specified military and industry requirements, demonstrating reliability under simulated real-world transit conditions. The work is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541380, indicating it falls under engineering services, and is issued by the Department of Defense through the LAND SUPPLIER OPNS ENGINES organization. Performance is designated to take place in Tracy, California, with a response deadline of July 31, 2026, and the solicitation was posted on July 20, 2026. While no set-aside provisions or point of contact details are provided, the contract demands technical expertise in packaging engineering, compliance validation, and detailed reporting to ensure all outcomes align with defense logistics specifications.
