I am a small business on the west coast and it seems that I am at a disadvantage because shipping costs from my business to DLA are much higher than for someone that is close to DLA.

The answer depends the FOB location in the solicitation. If the FOB location is Origin, then DLA will pay fo the shipping. If the FOB location is Destination then your price must include the shipping cost. In those cases, your location relative to the destination location could put you at a cost disadvantage.
