What We Move

Movements are driven by disaster survivor needs and partner response roles. We support Freight of All Kinds (FAK) and specialized movements as tasked.

FAK Disaster Commodities

  • Palletized relief supplies (e.g., water and essentials)
  • Emergency infrastructure and field support materials
  • Communications and operational equipment

Housing Unit Moves

  • Post-response housing unit transportation when tasked
  • Carrier/equipment matching for specialized movements
  • Documentation discipline for high-visibility moves

Special Requests

  • Requests outside FAK treated as special
  • We clarify requirements before firm pricing
  • Accurate cost estimates and feasible movement plans

How Awards Work (Operational Alignment)

We are structured for the two primary award pathways: using submitted rates in the system and responding to Spot Bid requests.

Rates-in-System

We submit rates only where we can reliably honor them. Rate honor and documentation quality are treated as performance-critical.

Spot Bids

We respond rapidly to email-issued Spot Bids with a standardized acknowledgement and firm offer/decline workflow.

Operating Principles
  • No load-board behavior. We operate rate-based and via email Spot Bids.
  • Rate honor first. We do not accept movements we cannot perform.
  • Audit-ready documentation. POD/BOL + timestamps + exception notes.
  • Clear communication. Early notice on constraints or delays.
