Farrell Lines Incorporated, a for-profit company specializing in ocean and intermodal cargo transportation, has been awarded multiple delivery orders against the $320.6 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) "Ocean and Intermodal Cargo Transport 2019" contract by the U.S. Air Force's Air Mobility Command and the U.S. Army Materiel Command's Surface Deployment and Distribution Command. The delivery orders, valued at up to $69.4 million, task Farrell Lines with providing consolidated transportation services for decentralized ordering officers, utilizing fixed-price terms with economic price adjustment. This supports the military's global logistics operations, as Farrell Lines transports cargo via sea, land, and air to locations worldwide including the Middle East and U.S. domestic regions. The contract does not have any set-aside designations, allowing Farrell Lines to serve as the prime contractor leveraging its expertise in delivering multimodal freight transportation solutions to the Department of Defense.
The original contract solicitation was a special notice issued by the U.S. Transportation Command to gather feedback on a draft performance work statement for the "Universal Service Contract 9" program prior to issuance of a formal solicitation. The contract is limited to vessel owning or operating carriers under Federal Maritime Law. The Air Mobility Command and Surface Deployment and Distribution Command subsequently awarded Farrell Lines the Ocean and Intermodal Cargo Transport 2019 IDIQ contract, enabling the delivery orders for consolidated transportation services in support of military logistics objectives.
