Since 1965, Universal Processing Company (CAGE: 1B746) has helped defense primes, aerospace OEMs, and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) suppliers eliminate packaging rejections and inspection bottlenecks. Ship your bare parts to our ISO 9001:2015 certified Columbus facility—we handle MIL-STD-2073-1E preservation, MIL-STD-129R barcode/RFID marking, and Alternative Release Procedures (ARP) for origin inspection contracts.
Non-compliant military packages result in Supply Discrepancy Reports (SDRs), rejected shipments at DLA depots, and delayed WAWF payments. We engineer the most economical compliant solution from solicitation bid to final bill of lading.
From small aerospace fasteners and delicate avionics to heavy engines and transmissions, we execute Methods 10–50 preservation, greaseproof/watervaporproof barrier heat-sealing, ESD protection, and custom ISPM-15 crating.
Stop waiting weeks for an on-site government inspector. We hold Alternative Release Procedures (ARP) for QAR origin inspection contracts, releasing shipments and WAWF DD250s in days.
Every container is marked with compliant Unit, Intermediate, and Exterior barcoded identification, Military Shipment Labels (MSL), UID (MIL-STD-130), and encoded DFARS passive RFID tags—available turnkey or shipped to your plant.
Located in Columbus, Ohio minutes from DLA Land and Maritime (DSCC), we offer short- and long-term warehousing, motor freight consolidation, Vendor Shipment Module (VSM) routing, and Government Bills of Lading (GBL).
You don't need to translate complex MIL-STD-2073-1E packaging code strings, Special Packaging Instructions (SPIs), or barrier specs yourself. Simply send us your solicitation number, NSN, or contract award—our estimating team reviews every preservation, cushioning, container, and marking requirement and returns a complete, economical turnkey quote.
