Description (excerpt)

Amendment 1 Re-opens the AMTR BAA SP4701-23-B-0001 and addresses various administrative changes This notice constitutes a combined synopsis and Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the acquisition of research and development (R&D) in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 35.016, “Broad agency announcement,” as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. No other solicitation will be issued. Only the information provided in this notice is available. Requests for other forms of solicitation shall be disregarded. Rapidly changing improvements in technology and increasing operational requirements have made defense acquisition more data driven and increasingly complex. To keep up with DLA’s customers demanding needs requires DLA to modernize its acquisition processes. The Acquisition Modernization Technology Research (AMTR) Program, established at the beginning of FY22, assesses acquisition and procurement processes, identifies and prioritizes areas that would benefit from IT modernization or advanced technologies, evaluates technical requirements, and pursues future research efforts for DLA.

The Acquisition Modernization Technology Research solutions should focus on all LOEs; however, there is a primary focus on LOE 4: Modernized Acquisition and Supply Chain Management, defined as “leading in logistics to deliver best value and manage risk.” The DLA Research and Development (R&D) Program Office is seeking IT modernization efforts that support any of the AMTR strategic focus areas outlined in the scope of this BAA (see Section 3: Scope). This BAA will remain open for five (5) years and will have a one-time initial closing date for receipt of cost & technical proposals for IDIQ consideration under Short Term Projects (180 days after initial posting). After the initial 180-day period the BAA will temporarily close and evaluation of cost & technical proposals will take place. During the initial BAA response period (180 day window), vendors must submit full cost & technical proposals (omitting the White Paper submission) in order to be considered for an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract (see Section 6: Proposal Instructions). Cost and technical proposals submitted under this BAA for IDIQ consideration shall describe a potential Short Term Project (STP) that  …
