Military Shipment Marking and Labeling Services

The contract requires the application of compliant markings and machine-readable barcodes, specifically GS1 DataBar and PDF417, to military shipment containers in strict adherence to MIL-STD-129 and Medical Marking Standard No. 1. These standards ensure uniformity, traceability, and operational readiness across the Defense Department’s medical supply chain by dictating the format, placement, and content of labeling on containers. The work is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 323111, indicating it involves printing and related support activities tailored to government specifications. All labeling must meet rigorous technical and logistical requirements to support efficient inventory management, automated scanning, and accountability at every stage of redistribution. The solicitation is issued by the Department of Defense through the Medical Supply Chain MD Surg FSF office and is posted on the DIBBS platform with a response deadline of August 3, 2026. Although no specific location is provided for performance, the nature of the work implies that services may be performed at multiple sites or facilities involved in medical logistics. The contract does not specify a set-aside status, suggesting it is open to all eligible subcontractors. Successful bidders must demonstrate expertise in defense labeling standards, access to certified labeling systems, and the capacity to maintain high-volume, error-free production under strict quality controls to meet the operational demands of military medical supply operations.
