The contract governs the transportation of packaged batteries from the origin point to the designated destination using a traceable, non-parcel post method, ensuring secure and accountable movement of hazardous materials. Terms are defined under FOB origin, meaning the buyer assumes all risks and responsibilities once the goods leave the supplier’s location, including any costs or liabilities incurred during transit. The transportation service must comply with strict traceability requirements to maintain visibility throughout the shipping process, and the use of parcel post is explicitly prohibited to ensure compliance with safety and regulatory standards for battery shipments. This subcontract is issued under NAICS code 484220, which classifies it as a freight transportation arrangement, and is managed by the Defense Logistics Agency under the Department of Defense. The solicitation was posted on August 5, 2026, and is linked to a specific award with the contract number SPE7M117D0001 and delivery identifier SPE7LX26F88Y4. While no specific pickup or delivery locations are provided, the work is to be performed under federal defense logistics protocols, requiring adherence to government-mandated security and handling standards for sensitive materials. No set-aside status or point of contact information is specified, indicating this is a standard commercial subcontract under broad defense logistics operations.
