- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: This RFI is to identify small business capability to perform the following requirement. USTRANSCOM has a requirement to provide transportation service needs of Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) for the movement of its small package ground shipments and to ensure that contractors providing transportation have the willingness and capability to meet those needs and to provide the standardization necessary for routing of the Department of Defense (DoD) freight traffic and U.S. Government shipments of foreign military sales (FMS) material. The program consists of pickup from, transportation and delivery service to all commercial/military ZIP Codes (as defined by the U.S. Postal Service ZIP Code Directory) within the Continental United States (CONUS), including the District of Columbia (DC). This excludes small package delivery to Army Post Offices (APO), Fleet Post Offices (FPO), and U.S. Postal facilities (i.e. P.O. Boxes.) The Performance Work Statement (PWS) covers small package ground (surface) shipments of a non-expedited nature, with no piece weighing more than 150 pounds. The PWS will establish regularly scheduled pickup service at two primary depot locations and at several other depots, and provide delivery service from those locations CONUS-wide. In order to be considered for award, the contractor shall be an approved carrier in the SDDC Freight Carrier Registration Program and be on the list of DoD approved carriers, shall be GTN compliant, shall provide web-based In Transit Visibility (ITV), traceability and control of shipments and provide verifiable Proof of Receipt, Proof of Shipments, and Proof of Delivery. The web-based ITV service shall have ability to track/trace shipments packages by Transportation Control Number(s) (TCN)and be accessible via the World Wide Web (www). THIS AGENCY HAS NOT MADE A FINAL COMMITMENT TO PROCURE THE STATED REQUIREMENT AND THIS RFI SHOULD NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT OR AUTHORIZATION TO INCUR COSTS IN ANTICIPATION OF SUCH PROCUREMENT. This agency is interested in obtaining responses to this RFI from prospective contractors, but no contractor shall be reimbursed for providing this information; therefore USTRANSCOM will accept the requested information in whatever format it is provided. All information provided by the contractor will become property of USTRANSCOM and will not be returned. Responses are requested by 1500 CST on 20 February 2008. Responses should include a point of contact, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address. Interested parties capable of performing this requirement should e-mail responses to: betty.mcgarry@ustranscom.mil
