About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps is soliciting barge transportation services to support the Resolute Dragon 2025 (RD-25) Field Training Exercise in Japan through a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items. The requirement involves providing a roll-on/roll-off barge with minimum 400 square meters of deck space to transport military equipment between Naha Military Port and Kubura Port on Yonaguni Island, along with material handling support and ground transportation services. Contractors must demonstrate technical capabilities to handle container stacking operations, maintain proper insurance and vessel certifications, and provide qualified operators for material handling equipment. The government will evaluate quotes based on three factors in no specific order: technical capabilities, price, and past performance, with preference given to US-flagged vessels. Quotes must be submitted via email by September 8, 2025, at 1630 JST, with quotes remaining valid for 90 days, and all offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).

This procurement operates under full and open competition with no set-aside designation and no current or incumbent contractors identified in the documentation. The contract involves two specific transportation missions: deployment operations on September 15-16, 2025, moving approximately 20 twenty-foot ISO shipping containers plus refrigeration and water containers, followed by re-deployment on September 18-19, 2025, transporting 32 quadcon shipping containers back to Naha Military Port. The cargo payload includes containers weighing approximately 5,442 kg each, with additional breakbulk items requiring careful handling and stacking capabilities up to two containers high. Performance will take place in Japan, specifically between Okinawa and Yonaguni Island, with material handling operations extending up to 8 hours at Camp Yonaguni. This represents a one-time requirement with no anticipated follow-on or option periods, and the government has indicated flexibility in accepting alternative solutions that meet operational needs while maintaining the core transportation and handling requirements.
