Transportation and Delivery (FOB Destination)

The contract obligates the delivery of goods to Tracy, California under FOB destination terms, meaning the seller retains ownership and responsibility for the goods until they arrive at the specified destination. This places the full burden of transportation risk, cost, and logistics on the supplier until the goods are physically received at the delivery point. If ocean transport is required as part of the shipment process, the contract mandates compliance with U.S.-flag vessel regulations, ensuring that only vessels owned or operated under the flag of the United States are used for any maritime leg of the journey. This requirement aligns with federal statutes governing domestic shipping and supports national maritime interests. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 484220, which pertains to freight transportation by truck, and is issued by the Defense Logistics Agency on behalf of the Department of Defense. The posting date indicates this solicitation was made in mid-2026, suggesting it is a forward-looking procurement initiative with anticipated execution thereafter.
