Unison CE TruePlanning Software Renewal FY25

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center (NASA/NSSC) has issued a Special Notice for a sole source contract opportunity involving the Unison CE TruePlanning Software Renewal for Fiscal Year 2025. The notice is specifically for a software license renewal to be performed at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. The procurement is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which allows direct award to a single source. The contract will cover a one-year software license period from March 1, 2025, through February 28, 2026, and will include four software seats for space mission estimation. Unison Cost Engineering LLC has been identified as the sole provider for this specialized software solution.

Contractors interested in this opportunity must submit their capabilities and qualifications in writing to the designated point of contact, Shanna Patterson, no later than 7 a.m. Central Standard Time on March 20, 2025. The software is a critical tool for NASA's space mission cost validation, with existing cost models specifically written for this platform, making alternative vendors incompatible. Potential impacts of not securing this specific software include work stoppage and potential mission delays. The procurement falls under the Software Publishers NAICS category (513210) and the IT and Telecom Business Application Software as a Service PSC category (DA10). While this is a sole source requirement, NASA retains sole discretion on whether to pursue competitive procurement, and interested organizations are encouraged to demonstrate their capabilities despite the direct award intention.
