About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is seeking proposals for the Strategic Distribution and Disposition (SDD) program to enhance DLA's business processes through the use of emerging technologies and innovative practices. Specifically, DLA aims to transform its distribution and disposition services by leveraging Industry 4.0 technologies such as 5G, autonomous robots, modeling and simulation, Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence. Proposals should focus on feasibility studies, prototype development, and testing of these technologies to modernize DLA's legacy warehouse systems, improve efficiency, and address evolving cybersecurity needs. Proposals will be evaluated based on factors like technical merit, viability within DOD constraints, desirability to DLA, and the offerors' past performance and capabilities. The performance period for awards is expected to be fiscal years 2023 through 2028, with a total government investment of up to $10 million per year planned.
This opportunity is not set-aside. The relevant NAICS codes are 541712 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences) and 541330 (Engineering Services). DLA does not identify any potential incumbents or current contractors. The procurement has no specific quantity requirements, but the anticipated award durations range from 3 to 24 months. The place of performance is the United States.
