The Period of Performance is November 26, 2019 through November 25, 2020. DLA The estimated cost of the Supply Chain Guru software maintenance is approximately.

Llamasoft Supply Chain Guru is a combined network optimization modeling and simulation capability including sales and operations planning (S&OP) and demand analytics. The software package must be able to be customized for specific DLA requirements and must be able to run multiple model optimizations and simulations using one common database. Supply Chain Guru Software capabilities include a network design application that enables users to model their supply chains, evaluate alternatives, optimize the structure, and simulate scenarios in order to predict the operational performance. The application includes detailed modeling and analysis functionality to support site selection and decisions, transportation strategy decisions, inventory policies decisions and strategic sourcing decisions. Supply Chain Guru also includes detailed discrete event simulation to visualize the operational performance of any scenario, to compare multiple scenarios, and to verify the service rates, inventories, and site capacities over the time horizon defined by J343.

Brand name Llamasoft Supply Chain Guru is essential to the Government’s requirements and market research indicates other companies’ products do not meet, or cannot be modified to meet, the Agency’s needs. Only Llamasoft Supply Chain Guru is able to provide efficient network optimization modeling and simulation capability.
