Radioactive Materials Handling and Packaging Supply

The contract involves the supply and management of specialized packaging for radioactive materials, requiring precision engineering to ensure safe handling, transportation, and storage. The packaging must include engineered cushioning and robust containment systems designed to meet the stringent DLA RA001 standards, ensuring compliance with federal safety and regulatory requirements for radioactive substances. All components must be rigorously tested and documented to maintain integrity under extreme conditions, with focus on preventing leakage, minimizing radiation exposure, and preserving material stability during transit. This is a subcontract under the Defense Logistics Agency, part of the Department of Defense, with a NAICS code of 493190 indicating it falls within other transportation support activities. The contract was posted on July 20, 2026, and is managed through the DIBBS system under award number SPE7MC26P3125. Performance locations are not specified, indicating flexibility in logistics but requiring the contractor to support operations across multiple federal sites as needed. The work demands ongoing compliance oversight, quality assurance protocols, and the ability to respond rapidly to changing mission requirements involving nuclear materials handling.
