Transportation and Freight Logistics (Sea or Land)

The contract covers the domestic transportation of packaged voltmeters to Tracy, California, under FOB origin terms, meaning the buyer assumes all responsibility and costs for the shipment once the goods leave the seller’s facility. All logistics must comply with Department of Defense shipping requirements as administered by the Maritime Supply Chain under the DLA, ensuring adherence to military logistics standards for handling, documentation, and delivery protocols. The North American Industry Classification System code 484220 indicates this is a contract for truck transportation of freight, emphasizing land-based movement as the primary mode. The solicitation is structured as a subcontract with a response deadline of July 16, 2026, and was posted on July 5, 2026. The place of performance is specifically identified as Tracy, CA, with a zip code of 95304-5000, and the contracting entity is part of the Department of Defense. While no specific mode of transport is mandated, the title suggests flexibility between sea and land, but given the inland destination and FOB origin stipulation, land transportation is the practical means. Bidders must ensure full compliance with DLA procedures for defense-related shipments, including proper labeling, tracking, and timely delivery to meet operational timelines.
