The "Class IV Lumber Program" booklet, published by DLA Troop Support, outlines the procurement process for lumber and plywood within the Construction & Equipment Supply Chain. It details features like commercial deliveries, diversified product lines including bulk lumber, millwork, and plywood, and stable pricing. The document covers ordering via various systems (e.g., SSA, GCSS Army, FedMall), emphasizing the use of exception data for special requirements and specific delivery instructions. Funding is limited to MILSTRIP orders using National Stock Numbers (NSNs). Ordering criteria vary by location (CONUS/PACOM, EUCOM, AFRICOM, CENTCOM), with specific requirements for Points of Contact (POCs) for delivery. Delivery schedules are impacted by treatments and consolidation points, with vessel shipments taking considerable time. The booklet includes frequently used NSNs for lumber and plywood, minimum order quantities (MOQs), and guidance on Material Receipt Acknowledgements (MRAs) and handling material issues or billing discrepancies through Supply Discrepancy Reports (SDRs). Key contacts and a glossary of terms are also provided.

This government file details various lumber and wood products, including specifications for crossarms, dowels, hardwood lumber (White Ash, Birch, Hard Maple, Mahogany, Poplar, Walnut, White Oak, and All Hardwood Species for specific uses), hardwood flooring (Hard Maple, Red/White Oak), and laminated wood decking. It also covers softwood lumber, categorizing it by finish, common, and structural grades. The document provides detailed requirements for each product, such as typical use, grading rules, species, moisture content, surfacing, length, width, and applicable federal or military specifications. It also lists contact information for ordering these specifications. The file's purpose is to standardize and regulate the procurement and use of wood products within government applications, likely for federal procurement or construction projects.

The Defense Logistics Agency – Troop Support is conducting market research for planned competitive Long Term Contracts (LTCs) for wood products under the Wood Products Tailored Logistics Support Program (TLSP) West Region. The government intends to issue a solicitation with a 100% Small Business Set Aside, with the Trade Agreements Act applicable. Pricing will be based on truckload quantities, and all orders will be FOB Destination to customers in 16 specified locations including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Guam, Hawaii, Idaho, Japan, Korea, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The Request for Information (RFI) seeks responses by December 12, 2025, from interested businesses. It asks for information on business size, product distribution capabilities for 23 listed wood products (including various lumber and plywood types), current commercial and government customers, challenges in obtaining and distributing products, average required lead times for each product, and potential difficulties with consolidation point shipping and source stuffing requirements. Additionally, the RFI requests details on infrastructure setup for deliveries, ramp-up periods, ability to handle surge quantities, typical truckload quantities, and recommendations for Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs). The agency is also considering a presolicitation conference via Microsoft Teams in March 2026.
