Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procurements began to gain popularity in 2007 due to limited agency budgets. They grew to become some of the most widely used source selection methods by the Department of Defense (DoD) and were also quite common in the civilian space. The pricing pressures resulted in low-ball bids and negatively impacted quality.

It’s a new year and our office is buzzing. With FY2018 marketplace actions officially closed out, we wanted to share with you a few of our top statistics. First and foremost, we’d like to thank our Buyers for posting over 17,000 buys with more than $1.2B in transaction volume through the Marketplace. In addition, we would like to thank the more than 88,000 Sellers who actively bid well over 250,000 times throughout the year!

Are you on the fast track?  Panel discussions with GovCon Contracts Leaders unearthed several steps you can take to make a true impact on your organization.

Save time with a new Marketplace tool that will allow you to select line items from multiple buys, add them to a folder and later add them to the same buy.

FY18 has come to an end and now Sellers get to take a breather from the hectic bidding and work towards fulfilling contracts. So, what’s next after you win a contract on Unison Marketplace?
