Logistics Technology Research (LTR) Program

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Logistics Technology Research (LTR) program is issuing Broad Agency Announcement SP4701‑24‑B‑0001 to solicit White Papers describing innovative short‑term research projects (STPs) that apply emerging technologies or novel business practices to improve DLA/DOD logistics capabilities. Submissions must be limited to six pages (cover sheet, one‑page executive summary, and a four‑page project summary) and follow the mandatory template in Attachment A. The White Paper must clearly define the problem or opportunity, outline goals, expected impact, technical approach, feasibility, transition strategy, risk mitigation, management plan, and provide a cost and schedule estimate. Proposals must include a business case with measurable success criteria and a path to implementation that addresses a specific DLA or DoD need, and must demonstrate relevance to one or more Mission Service Components or DLA Headquarters process owners. All White Papers are evaluated on technical merit, relevance to agency programs, cost realism, and fund availability; the Government may request a full cost‑type technical proposal for award under an IDIQ or definitive contract. Submissions are to be sent in PDF format titled “SP4701‑24‑B‑0001” via email to the Contracting POC and the DCSO‑R D mailbox; questions are accepted only by email (subject line “Questions, SP4701‑24‑B‑0001”) to Emily Linico (Emily.Linico@dla.mil) and DCSO‑R D (RandD.DCSO@dla.mil). Proprietary claims must be identified, and all FAR cost‑pricing and data rights clauses apply. This is an unrestricted acquisition.
