Military Packaging and Preservation Services

The contract requires full compliance with military-grade packaging, preservation, and marking standards including MIL-STD-2073-1E, MIL-STD-129, and DLA RP001 for palletization, ensuring all components are protected, labeled, and prepared for long-term storage and global military logistics. The work must be performed in strict adherence to these standardized procedures to maintain readiness and interoperability across defense supply chains, with every phase of packaging subject to inspection and validation. This is a total small business set-aside under the SBA program, restricted to qualifying small businesses, with the NAICS code 312230 indicating the focus on beverage and tobacco product manufacturing, though the actual scope pertains strictly to defense packaging services. The solicitation was posted on August 4, 2026, with responses due by August 19, 2026, under the Maritime Supply Chain organization within the Department of Defense. Performance is expected to support military logistics operations without specified geographic constraints, and all work must align with DLA’s uniform requirements for accountability and deployment readiness.
