DLA Surface Small Package II 2013-2017

The DLA Surface Small Package II (SSP II) 2013-2017 Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract was awarded by the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) to support surface transportation logistics for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). The contract encompasses consolidated ground shipping services for small packages weighing 150 pounds or less, covering transportation needs across the Continental United States (CONUS), Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. Contractors under this vehicle are responsible for providing comprehensive logistics services including personnel, equipment, tools, and supervision necessary to execute pickup, transportation, and delivery services to both commercial and military ZIP codes.

The contract primarily involved two prime contractors: United Parcel Service (UPS) and FedEx Ground Package System, who competed for monthly delivery orders ranging from approximately $300,000 to $900,000. Task orders were consistently firm-fixed price and did not utilize specific small business set-asides, indicating open competition among large transportation providers. The delivery orders consistently covered surface small package consolidated movement services for the Department of Defense, with contract periods typically spanning one month and focusing on ground shipments. The funding agency was consistently the Department of the Army Materiel Command Surface Deployment and Distribution Command, with performance locations primarily in Washington, D.C. and other domestic shipping hubs. Task orders ran continuously from September 2013 through December 2017, demonstrating a stable, recurring logistics support requirement for the Defense Logistics Agency.
