This document, "Packaging and Marking Guide For DoD," prepared by the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) in March 2014, serves as an informational guide for familiarization purposes regarding Department of Defense (DoD) packaging and marking requirements. It is not an officially adopted DoD document and does not replace contractual requirements, specifications, or regulations.

This guide is relevant to bidders as it outlines where packaging requirements are typically found within solicitations and contracts (e.g., Section D - Packaging & Marking, Section J - Attachments). It details various military packaging standards (e.g., MIL-STD-2073-1E, MIL-STD-147), preservation methods, packing levels (Level A, Level B), and specific requirements for hazardous materials. The document also covers essential aspects such as:

• Packaging Standards: MIL-STD-2073-1E (Standard Practice for Military Packaging), MIL-STD-147 (Palletization), ASTM D3951 (Commercial Packaging).
• Preservation Methods: Five basic methods are described, ranging from physical protection to watervaporproof protection with desiccant.
• Hazardous Materials: Requirements for packaging and marking in accordance with modal regulations (49 CFR, IMDG, ICAO/IATA, AFMAN 24-204_IP).
• Markings: Details on identification markings, bar code markings, address markings, and special markings (e.g., hazardous material, fragile, shelf-life, UID, RFID).
• Inspection: Outlines preservation and packing inspection procedures, including leakage and heat-sealed seam tests.

Bidders should consult this guide to understand the general framework and common standards for DoD packaging and marking, which may be referenced or detailed in specific contract solicitations or statements of work.
