About this opportunity

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) issued a Limited Source Justification Notice for Evidential Matter (EM) Gathering support services, extending an existing contract to Lynch Consulting through February 15, 2025. The contractor will be responsible for extracting EM data from various DLA systems including EBS, iRAPT, and LDG, with specific requirements to define and document procedures for data retrieval within three business days. The justification is based on Lynch Consulting's nine months of prior experience providing critical Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) support, with the goal of preventing service interruption during the Transaction Fund audit extension. The contract (SP470423A0503) requires the vendor to perform complex data extraction, perform completeness and quality checks, attend weekly team meetings, and upload documents to designated secure platforms. While the exact contract value was not disclosed, the notice indicates the services will cover a three-month period from November 16, 2024 to February 15, 2025, with DLA planning to competitively re-bid the requirement under Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Best Practice Agreements starting March 1, 2025.

Notice text

LSJ to support EM Gathering: The contractor must define, document, and maintain procedures to pull EM out of EBS and other DLA
systems (e.g., LDG, iRAPT, etc.) as required. The contractor must create new or update existing
documentation that describes the specific procedures, which will allow for data/document pulls to be
able to be successfully performed within three business days. Some of these procedures already exist
and will need to be updated; other new procedures will need to be documented for the first time based
upon IPA requirements and requests.
The contractor must provide data populations and data sets of EM transactions to support the audit as
defined by DLA specifications (based on IPA sampling protocols). These types of data pulls and data
groupings have not been routinely performed by DLA. The data must be retrieved in no more than three
days or as otherwise established by DLA and will include pulling EM packages for DLA customers.
Demonstrate assurance that all data pulled matches data populations through completeness, quality, and
accuracy checks. This will include documentation of data reconciliations or other completeness tests
such as a report that lists data gaps and suggested alternatives when all DLA system pull options have
been exhausted (to include systems outside of EBS). Existing data team resources are not sufficient to
support this level of data pulls. The resources supplied must be knowledgeable on DLA financial system
configuration and documentation. Prioritization of requests may be required based upon the volume and
distribution of requests during the audit.
The contractor must also:
o Attend weekly team meetings to be included with the B-WAR,
o Prepare and present walkthrough on procedures taken when pulling evidential matter
o Upload documents to the RC Tool/send via DOD Safe on behalf of DLA and send out
coordination emails to the different teams.

Awarded contract SP470423A0503 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2024-11-07.
