Okinawa Stevedoring & Forwarding Co., LTD.

Okinawa Stevedoring & Forwarding Co., LTD. is a for-profit international organization headquartered in Naha, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, and has been registered in the System for Award Management since January 12, 2005. The company specializes in providing comprehensive stevedoring and port terminal services to support U.S. military logistics operations throughout the Asia-Pacific region. As a critical logistics partner for the U.S. Department of Defense, Okinawa Stevedoring & Forwarding Co., LTD. delivers essential port operations and cargo handling services at strategic seaports in Okinawa, facilitating the movement of military personnel, equipment, and supplies necessary to sustain U.S. force presence and operational readiness in Japan and across the region.

The company has an extensive history of federal contract performance, having received numerous delivery orders primarily from the U.S. Army's Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) since at least 2021. These delivery orders, issued under firm fixed-price contracts without small business set-aside designations, consistently involve stevedoring and related terminal services (S&RTS) at Okinawan port facilities. The scope of services provided includes cargo handling, loading and unloading of vessels, equipment operation, storage and transportation of military materiel, and specialized handling of dangerous and explosive materials. Individual delivery orders have ranged significantly in value, from approximately $9,798 to over $637,000, demonstrating the variable operational demands placed on the contractor throughout the fiscal year. The company has served as a prime contractor on all identified awards with no subcontractors noted, maintaining full responsibility for contract performance. Since 2021, Okinawa Stevedoring & Forwarding Co., LTD. has received consistent monthly or monthly-equivalent delivery orders under its indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle, reflecting the ongoing and mission-critical nature of stevedoring support requirements at Okinawan ports for U.S. military logistics operations.

Okinawa Stevedoring & Forwarding Co., LTD. currently holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command, effective from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2030, with a ceiling value of $16,850,130.69. This contract covers stevedoring and related terminal services at ports in Okinawa, Japan, issued without set-aside designation. The IDC represents a renewal and expansion of the company's prior IDIQ contract (HTC71120DR001), which had a ceiling value of approximately $33 million and ran from March 26, 2020, through March 31, 2025. Under the current IDC, the contractor continues to provide comprehensive port services including cargo handling, vessel loading and unloading, equipment operation, and specialized handling of hazardous materials. Since the IDC's award in October 2025, the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command has already issued at least two delivery orders against this contract: one valued at $2,500 with completion by September 30, 2026, and another valued at $22,794.40 with completion by September 30, 2025. These delivery orders illustrate the ongoing utilization of the contract vehicle to meet variable and recurring stevedoring requirements in support of U.S. military logistics infrastructure in the Asia-Pacific region.
