2. Chapter 7

   1. Effective 1 Oct 2017, NGDS will be the mandatory-use small package delivery services contract(s). NGDS is the consolidation of Total Delivery Services (TDS), GSA's Domestic Delivery Services (DDS3), Surface Small Package (SSPII), and Small Package Ground Tenders. The PMO functions for the above listed programs have all been consolidated at TRANSCOM J4-L.

      C7.15.4.2.1.1. Next Generation Delivery Services (NGDS). NGDS may be used by the USG to move Controlled Cryptographic Items for OCONUS FMS customers. NGDS provides international commercial express package (Letter to 300 lbs) time-definite, door-to-door pick-up and delivery, with accurate in-transit visibility service for DOD and USG Civil agencies. USG shippers must establish an account and arrange individual shipments. If CCI is shipped by NGDS, external markings on the packaging must not identify the contents as CCI. For additional guidance on the use of NGDS, see Chapter 202 of the DTR. For further information, such as Performance Work Statement (PWS), rates, domestic service levels offered, international transit-times, along with other pertinent information related to NGDS can be found on GSA's Acquisition Hallway, located at https://hallways.cap.gsa.gov/login-information. All questions related to NGDS should be directed to the TRANSCOM J4-L.

   2. C7.4.2. This change is because the Enterprise Readiness Center's functions have been split between TRANSCOM J3 and J5. For operational considerations, TRANSCOM J3 can assist.

      Revise: "Coordination with TRANSCOM's Enterprise Readiness Center at transcom.scott.tcj3.mbx.fms@mail.mil may be necessary," to read, "Coordination with TRANSCOM J3 at transcom.scott.tcj3.mbx.fms@mail.mil may be necessary."
