Packaging, Labeling, and Serialization Services

The contract requires the provision of DoD-compliant packaging, preservation, labeling, and UII serialization services for LED headlight bands, adhering strictly to the standards outlined in ASTM-D-3951 and MIL-STD-130. These services must ensure that all components meet military specifications for durability, traceability, and identification throughout the supply chain, with unique item identification (UII) serialized in accordance with federal compliance protocols. The work is tied to a small business set-aside under the SBA, designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside per FAR 19.5, meaning only certified small businesses are eligible to bid. The NAICS code 561990 classifies this as other support services, indicating the nature of the work is specialized logistical and compliance support rather than manufacturing. The contract is issued by DLA Maritime – Puget Sound under the Department of Defense, with performance required in Bremerton, Washington, 98314. The solicitation period is extremely narrow, with a posted date of July 22, 2026, and a deadline for responses just seven hours later on July 23, 2026, at 7:00 PM Eastern Time. This tight window suggests an urgent or time-sensitive requirement tied to ongoing operational or logistics needs. The contract is structured as a subcontract, implying it supports a prime contractor executing a larger DoD obligation. All deliverables must fully align with DoD preservation and labeling standards, ensuring that each LED headlight band is properly packaged, labeled with UII data, and preserved for long-term storage and field deployment without degradation.
