The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is seeking to procure a renewal of Unison’s TruePlanning® Software Package to enhance cost estimation capabilities over a total estimated cost of $356,149.82. This contract includes a Base Year from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026, and extends to two Option Years through June 30, 2028. The software is essential for producing credible lifecycle estimates, facilitating "should cost" analyses that assist in securing fair prices for aviation purchases. The procurement justifies non-competitive contracting under Title 10, U.S.C 2304(c)(1) since TruePlanning® is a brand-name item only available from Unison CE, which meets DLA's unique needs. Despite this, DLA remains committed to fostering competition and will continuously assess market options to improve technological solutions. The document underscores DLA’s strategic approach to procurement, ensuring that necessary software tools are available to support its operational requirements while addressing market dynamics.
