## Description

United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) is seeking information from industry to assist with the development and planning of the Vessel Architecture requirements. The Department of Defense (DoD) relies heavily on efficient and effective transportation planning, particularly for the deployment and distribution of forces and equipment. Vessel Architecture is paramount to the success of the Integrated Computerized Deployment System (ICODES) Program.

Accurate vessel data is critical to the development and sustainment of the ICODES vessel library used by all DoD vessel load planners. The system provides users the ability to support staging, conveyance load planning, and multi-modal planning across various military and commercial transportation modes, during both peacetime and wartime operations.

The Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) requires the specialized expertise of a Marine Engineering Organization (MEO) to develop, maintain, and update vessel data for designated ships within the Military Sealift Command Core Fleet, Navy/U.S. Marine Corp Fleet, Foreign Flag, and Commercial Dry Cargo Ships. The MEO plays a critical role in ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and currency of the ICODES vessel library, which is utilized by DoD vessel load planners across the Services.
