Packaging, Preservation, and Shipping Services

The contract requires the provision of military-compliant packaging, preservation, and shipping services for defense-related components or equipment, with delivery finalized at the FOB Destination location in Port Hueneme, California, 93043. All packaging and preservation methods must adhere to strict military standards to ensure product integrity during transit and storage under varying environmental conditions, and all shipping logistics must be coordinated to meet the specified delivery point. The work falls under NAICS code 488490, identifying it as part of other support activities for water transport, though the nature of the services is clearly defense logistics focused. The contract is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Defense, specifically managed by the ASC SUPPLIER OPER OEM DIVISION. Responses are due by May 19, 2026, with the solicitation posted on May 11, 2026, indicating a competitive window of eight days for qualified vendors to submit proposals. The place of performance is fixed at Port Hueneme, meaning all operational activities—including final staging, labeling, and handoff—must be executed to meet the requirements of that location. The contract does not specify a set-aside classification, suggesting it is open to all eligible entities. Vendors must ensure compliance with all applicable defense logistics protocols and be prepared to demonstrate capability in handling sensitive or high-value military cargo under strict oversight. All correspondence and submissions should be directed through the DIBBS platform linked in the solicitation.
