Military-Grade Packaging and Preservation Services

The contract requires specialized packaging and preservation services for metal supplies in strict alignment with military standards, including ASTM B900-16 (R2022) and MIL-STD-2073-1E, ensuring long-term protection against corrosion, environmental damage, and handling degradation during storage and transport. The work must be performed at the New Cumberland facility with a ZIP code of 17070-5002 and is designated as a total small business set-aside under the SBA program, meaning only small businesses certified under the Small Business Administration’s guidelines are eligible to compete. The North American Industry Classification System code 323113 identifies this as a custom roll forming and other metalworking service, reflecting the technical nature of the packaging and preservation processes required. The solicitation was posted on August 5, 2026, with responses due by August 17, 2026, creating a narrow twelve-day window for submission, and the contract type is a subcontract, suggesting it is part of a larger defense procurement initiative managed by the Department of Defense through the DDSP New Cumberland Facility. The work is critical to maintaining the readiness and integrity of military metal assets, and compliance with both ASTM and MIL-STD specifications is non-negotiable, demanding precise documentation, validated procedures, and qualified personnel familiar with defense-grade preservation protocols. All performance must occur at the specified location, and the contractor must ensure full traceability and adherence to military logistics requirements without deviation.
