Packaging, Labeling, and Domestic/International Shipping

The contract requires the environmentally sustainable packaging of fabricated breadboard assemblies with strict adherence to sustainability standards, ensuring minimal environmental impact throughout the packaging process. Each package must be clearly labeled with the purchase order number and a complete packing list to ensure accurate identification and traceability. Shipping must comply with FOB Destination Prepaid and Add terms for domestic deliveries within the United States, meaning the vendor assumes all costs and risks until the goods reach the designated SLAC facility in Menlo Park, CA, where ownership and responsibility transfer. For international shipments, the contract mandates CIP Duty Unpaid terms, under which the vendor is responsible for delivering the goods to a named destination and covering transport costs and insurance, but the buyer assumes import duties and taxes upon arrival. The place of performance is specifically identified with ZIP code 94025, confirming SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory as the final delivery point, and the contract falls under NAICS code 531210, indicating it relates to lessors of nonfinancial intangible assets, though the activity described pertains to logistics and packaging services. Responsive bids must be submitted by July 9, 2026, and the contract is classified as a subcontract under the U.S. Department of Energy's oversight through its SLAC contractor.
