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.

Compusearch’s new name, Unison, reflects the company’s focus on helping government agencies, program offices, and contractors align to best achieve government missions.

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!

Training Opportunities for Both Industry and Government

Compusearch had the honor of sponsoring the Government Contract Management Symposium (GCMS) for another year. The two-day symposium consisted of keynote addresses and breakout sessions to provide training to both government and industry contract professionals. GCMS was presented by the National Contract Management Association (NCMA), the largest professional resource for contract management, which helps bring together over 1,000 attendees every year at the conference.
