About this file
This document is a Sole Source Statement from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Contracting Services Office in Philadelphia, justifying the direct procurement of xTrack software from Supply Chain Technologies, LLC. The document details the addition of xTrack software to the existing XPS Software Maintenance and Support contract (SP4701-22-C-0099), with the purpose of enhancing logistic delivery tracking and improving supply chain management decisions.
The justification for sole source procurement is based on xTrack being a proprietary software developed exclusively by Supply Chain Technologies, with no certified dealers or resellers. The software will be integrated with the existing XPS software used in the DLA Warehouse Management System (WMS). The agency argues that attempting to use alternative software would require a complete system revamp, potentially causing significant disruptions such as loss of customer support, unknown implementation costs, extensive staff retraining, and extensive software recoding. The procurement is authorized under Title 10, U.S.C 2304 (c), (1), which permits contracting without full and open competition when only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements.

DCSO-Philadelphia intends to issue a modification under DCSO-P task order SP4701-20-C- 0099 with Supply Chain Technologies to incorporate supplemental software known as “Xtrack” which will enhance logistic delivery tracking and will be used by the DLA to improve supply chain management decisions. Xtrack software is proprietary to Supply Chain Technologies and will be purchased on a sole source basis under the statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is Title 10, U.S.C 2304 (c), (1), as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirement”
Supply Chain Technologies (SCT). Xtrack software and related maintenance is a proprietary product of SCT, and currently they do not have any certified dealers or resellers of their SW products.
Xtrack is a proprietary software developed by SCT Software. The Xtrack SW will be integrated to existing XSP software that is already in use by the DLA Warehouse Management System (WSM) to enhance comprehensive access to high velocity shipping data that can be is integral to making more proactive supply chain decisions.
There are no other known providers other than Supply Chain Technolgoies capable of satisfy the instant requirement. Due to current integration of XPS with WMS, any attempt to use another product or company's software in this environment would require a complete revamp of the WMS application implementation, causing multiple issues, such as loss of customer support to DLA clients, unknown budgetary cost to implement a new software product, the need for extensive retraining and recertification of the administration staff, extensive recoding of software
