The Government anticipates issuing an Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a base performance period of August 1, 2026, through July 31, 2031, with an optional six-month extension. This sources sought is for informational and market research purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee contract award.

Respondents must address their capability to provide S&RTS as a prime contractor, experience with foreign commercial contracts complying with local labor regulations, ability to maintain minimum productivity levels with qualified labor and equipment, acceptance of piece-rate pricing by container/vehicle unit and measurement ton for breakbulk cargo, and relevant project experience from the past five years.

There is an exception for work performed outside the United States that is required to be performed by a local contractor.
