The Ocean and Intermodal Cargo Transport 2019 IDIQ contract was awarded under a pre-solicitation announced by the United States Transportation Command in August 2018. The pre-solicitation event was held to gather feedback from vessel owning/operating carriers on the draft performance work statement prior to the issuance of a future solicitation. The contract is limited to these types of carriers as determined under federal maritime law. The IDIQ facilitates the provision of ocean and intermodal cargo transportation services to support the Air Mobility Command and Surface Deployment and Distribution Command's global logistics requirements.
