Packaging & Preservation Engineering for Military Shipment

The contract requires the design and implementation of packaging and preservation systems strictly compliant with MIL-STD-2073-1E and RP001, covering all aspects of military shipment readiness including materials, methods, and procedures for preserving equipment during storage and transit. This includes selecting appropriate containers, applying approved corrosion inhibitors, moisture barriers, and desiccants, and ensuring all packaging meets environmental and durability standards for long-term military use. Barcoded labeling must be applied in full accordance with MIL-STD-129, ensuring each item and container is uniquely identifiable with standardized data formats for inventory and logistics tracking. The work is scoped as a subcontract under the Department of Defense’s ASC Commodities Division, with performance required at San Diego, California, specifically at the 92136-3581 ZIP code location. The solicitation was posted on August 5, 2026, and responses are due by August 13, 2026, leaving a narrow eight-day window for submission. The NAICS code 541380 indicates this is for other scientific and technical consulting services, aligning with engineering support rather than manufacturing. While no set-aside classification is specified, participation is limited to subcontractors capable of delivering precision packaging solutions under stringent federal military standards without deviation.
