Transportation and Freight Logistics (FOB Origin)

Freight coordination is underway to move materials from Honeywell’s facility to destinations managed by the Defense Logistics Agency under FOB Origin terms, meaning the buyer assumes responsibility for transportation costs and risks once goods leave the seller’s location. The contract mandates DPAS priority handling to ensure expedited processing and delivery of defense-critical shipments, reflecting the urgency and strategic importance of the cargo. All shipping activities are enabled through EDI-enabled shipping notices, ensuring seamless, automated communication of shipment data between parties to enhance traceability, reduce errors, and support real-time logistics tracking. The work falls under NAICS code 484220, classifying it as specialized freight trucking, and is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Defense’s logistical framework, with performance tied to DLA’s operational requirements.
