This government file, N0038325PR0R730, outlines the preservation, packaging, packing, and marking requirements for items under federal contracts, focusing on reusable National Stock Number (NSN) containers. It mandates adherence to MIL-STD-2073-1E for packaging terms and levels of protection, and MIL-STD-129 for marking. The document specifies that items with an NSN in the “Container NSN” field must be shipped in reusable containers. It differentiates the provision of these containers: maritime material (COG Codes “7E,” “7G,” “7H”) requires contractor-furnished material (CFM) containers, while aviation material (COG Codes “7R,” “6K,” “0R”) typically uses government-furnished material (GFM) containers, excluding fiberboard and most wood, with a 90-day lead time for new procurements and 30 days for repair contracts. Foreign Military Sales (FMS), Joint Program Office (JPO), or other Foreign Forces Acquisition also require CFM containers. The document also includes a detailed table for item-specific packaging details such as HAZMAT status, preservation method, wrapping, cushioning, and container level of protection.
