First Destination Transportation and Packaging Initiative (FDTPI), Task Orders 0025 and 0033

Abstract

The First Destination Transportation and Packaging Initiative (FDTPI) is a transformational logistics R&D program to reduce the acquisition cost of goods purchased by DLA by 1) First Destination Transportation (FDT) converting inbound freight for new procurement goods from Free On Board (FOB) Destination (supplier purchased and controlled transportation) to FOB Origin (government purchased and controlled transportation) terms; and 2) First Destination Packaging (FDP) simplifying packaging requirements for eligible stock material to the commercial American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) 3951 packaging standard. The FDTPI Final Report for Task Orders 0025 and 0033 briefly describes the FDTPI project, provides a summary of the work performed under these task orders, and includes recommendations for the path forward.
