About this vehicle
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Surface Deployment and Distribution Command awarded this Master IDIQ for port operations and related transportation services on June 1, 2024, with ordering authority extending through May 31, 2034. All 29 task orders awarded to date carry no set-aside restrictions and are unrestricted competitive awards.
The vehicle remains active with approximately seven years and ten months of ordering window remaining. Since vehicle establishment in June 2024, 29 delivery orders have been placed, all on the award date itself, representing a concentrated initial activation rather than sustained ordering momentum. The combined potential value across all task orders is $73 thousand, with $68 thousand obligated (93% utilization). Two delivery orders show zero dollars obligated due to de-obligation modifications, while the remainder carry $2.5 thousand minimum guarantees and $2.5 thousand ceilings on firm-fixed-price work. All task orders are currently scheduled for May 31, 2025 completion.
Competitive concentration is extremely high: 29 distinct prime contractors hold awards, each with exactly one order valued at $3 thousand combined potential value. The top five primes—M L S Gulf L.l.c, Insignia Shipping Services LTD, Geranoi Arapis EE, S & D International Transportation And Logistics Services GMBH, and Verbrugge Zeeland Terminals B.V.—collectively represent only 17 percent of task orders and 17 percent of combined potential value, indicating a highly fragmented awardee base with no dominant prime. Customer concentration is absolute: 100 percent of orders fund the awarding agency's own requirements.
The scope covers the full spectrum of stevedoring and related terminal services for Defense Transportation System cargo import and export across multiple combatant command areas of responsibility, including cargo receipt through disposition and processing for simultaneous multimodal shipments. Services may be required 24 hours per day, seven days per week, including official holidays, throughout the performance period.
The micro-scale of awarded orders and the fragmented prime base suggest this vehicle may be in early operational phase or functioning as a broad capability statement rather than a primary contracting mechanism for substantial port operations work.
