TWO POWERFUL
TOOLS

Government contracts go to bidders who actually understand what the government is asking for. dlasb.com gives you two AI-powered tools — one to analyze active solicitations, one to learn how to read them — so whether you're new or seasoned, you bid with clarity.

The Analyzer
Solicitation Analysis
For experienced and new contractors who want to fully understand a specific solicitation before they bid. Upload the PDF — DLASB extracts every critical data point and breaks it down across 10 analysis modules in under 60 seconds.
DLA DIBBS IFB RFP
Access at dlasb.com/analyzer
The Academy
Solicitation Education
For new government contractors who want to learn how to read and fully understand DLA DIBBS solicitations from the ground up. A separate AI-powered teaching tool with structured lessons, an Academy Tutor, and practice uploads.
DLA DIBBS only
Access at dlasb.com/academy

The Analyzer and the Academy are sold and accessed separately. Joint Ops bundles both into a single subscription.

Mission Capability

WHAT THE
ANALYZER DOES

Eight intelligence modules fire the moment you upload a solicitation PDF — whether it's a DLA DIBBS quote request, an IFB inviting sealed bids, or an RFP asking for a full proposal. Each module answers a specific question that costs contractors money when answered wrong.

AI Solicitation Breakdown
Reads your solicitation PDF and extracts every critical data point — solicitation number, NSN or item identifier, CAGE codes, quantities, due dates, buyer contact, contract type, evaluation method, and any referenced clauses or attachments — in a structured 10-tab analysis in under 60 seconds. Works on DLA DIBBS, IFB, and RFP formats.
DLA DIBBS · IFB · RFP
Live Bid Calculator
4-step real-time calculator. Enter your supplier cost, set your markup, add packaging and shipping, and get your exact bid price instantly. Every field recalculates live. Useful whether you're entering a single quote on DIBBS, pricing a sealed IFB response, or building the price-proposal section of an RFP.
Real-Time Calculation
MIL-SPEC Packaging Guide
Built-in military packaging reference covering MIL-STD-129, ASTM D3951, all packing levels, PRC codes, preservation methods, and marking requirements. AI generates an itemized materials list with supplier links and cost estimates. Especially useful on DLA DIBBS items — for IFBs and RFPs, applies whenever the solicitation cites MIL-SPEC packaging.
DLA DIBBS focus
Procurement & Pricing History
For DLA DIBBS items, extracts every historical award on the solicitation with inflation-adjusted competitive baseline, CAGE code patterns, and a specific recommended bid price. For IFB and RFP, summarizes any historical pricing data referenced in the solicitation and flags benchmarks the contracting officer is likely to compare against.
Inflation-Adjusted
FOB & Delivery Intelligence
Interprets FOB ORIGIN vs. DESTINATION in plain English. Tells you who pays shipping, what the inspection point means for your cost exposure, and what acceptance terms imply. Adjusts your bid calculation accordingly. For RFPs and IFBs, also extracts delivery schedules, performance periods, and place-of-performance requirements.
FOB & Delivery Logic
Compliance & Clause Tracker
Persistent tracker for SAM.gov registration, CAGE code expiry, and certifications you must hold to bid. Surfaces solicitation-specific compliance triggers — TAA, Berry Amendment, FAR/DFARS clauses, set-aside eligibility, and small-business size standards — so you know what's required before you price the bid, not after.
TAA / Berry / FAR / DFARS
Plain-English Solicitation Guide
Every solicitation generates a plain-English explanation of what you're bidding on, the steps to win, key terms defined, biggest mistakes to avoid, and a clear bid / no-bid recommendation with AI reasoning. For RFPs, breaks down evaluation factors, technical-proposal requirements, and past-performance asks. For IFBs, highlights sealed-bid mechanics and timing.
For New & Seasoned Bidders
Bid Spreadsheet & Export
Multi-line bid spreadsheet for solicitations with multiple CLINs or line items. Tracks all costs, markups, and profit per line. Exports a fully formatted Word document analysis report and plain text export. Saves every solicitation you've analyzed to the built-in manager so you can compare and reuse work across DIBBS, IFB, and RFP responses.

WHAT IT DOES
NOT DO

Honesty is part of the product. Know exactly what this tool covers before you depend on it.

⚠ Read This Before You Bid
DLASB does not guarantee contract awards. DLASB does not track government amendments to solicitations.
The tools at dlasb.com are built to help you understand what you're bidding on and to help you plan your bid strategy. They do not promise wins, do not detect amendments the government may issue after you upload a PDF, and do not replace your responsibility to verify that nothing has changed before you submit. Always re-check your solicitation on DIBBS or SAM.gov immediately before bidding — amendments, cancellations, due-date extensions, and spec changes happen frequently and can invalidate any analysis run earlier.
Submit Bids for You
DLASB analyzes solicitations and calculates your bid price. You still log into DIBBS and submit your quote manually. We tell you what to bid — you do the clicking.
Access DIBBS Live Data
The tool reads the PDF you give it. It does not connect to DIBBS, SAM.gov, or any government system directly. You download the solicitation and upload it here.
Track Solicitation Amendments
DLASB analyzes the PDF you upload at that moment. It does not watch for amendments, due-date changes, or cancellations the government may issue afterward. Always re-check your solicitation on DIBBS or SAM.gov immediately before submitting a bid.
Guarantee You Win
Procurement history and AI pricing suggestions are intelligence, not guarantees. The tool does not predict awards and does not promise contracts. Contracting decisions remain entirely yours. We maximize your information — not your outcome.
Source Products for You
DLASB tells you who the known suppliers are and gives you their CAGE codes. It does not contact suppliers, obtain quotes, or manage procurement on your behalf.
Handle Every Solicitation Type
The Analyzer is built for DLA DIBBS, IFB, and RFP solicitations. It is not designed for GSA Schedule contracts, BPA awards, IDIQ task orders, or non-DoD agency solicitations.
Provide Legal or Tax Advice
Compliance guidance is informational, not legal advice. FAR/DFARS clause interpretations, TAA determinations, and regulatory questions should involve qualified legal counsel.

DLA Solicitation Academy

LEARN BEFORE
YOU BID

The Analyzer breaks down a solicitation in seconds — but if you don't know what the pieces mean, the analysis only takes you halfway. The DLA Solicitation Academy is a separate AI-powered teaching tool that takes you the rest of the way. It teaches new contractors how to actually read and understand a DLA DIBBS solicitation from the ground up.

Curriculum
4 MODULES
30+ Lessons
Structured, self-paced lessons covering everything from registering on SAM.gov and getting a CAGE code, to reading a DIBBS solicitation line-by-line, to understanding TAA, MIL-SPEC packaging, FAR/DFARS clauses, and procurement history. Built specifically for DLA DIBBS — not generic government-contracting content.
Academy Tutor
24/7
Always Available
An Academy Tutor available around the clock to answer your questions as you work through the curriculum. Stuck on a concept, an acronym, or a clause you've never seen before? Ask it. The Tutor explains in plain English and connects the answer back to the lessons you've already covered.
Real Practice
UPLOAD.
Real Solicitations
Upload an actual DLA DIBBS solicitation PDF and have the Tutor walk you through it section by section. Ask questions about anything in the document — what a clause means, why a CAGE code matters, how to interpret the packaging requirements. Learn on the same kind of document you'll be bidding on.
Scope reminder: The Academy teaches DLA DIBBS solicitations only. The Analyzer (above) handles DLA DIBBS, IFB, and RFP. The Academy and Analyzer are sold separately, or together as Joint Ops.

Before You Subscribe

These tools help you understand.
The bid is still yours.

DLASB is an analysis and learning platform — not a bidding service. The tools at dlasb.com are built to help government contractors better understand what they are bidding on and to plan how to approach each solicitation. The bid itself, the pricing, the submission, and the outcome are entirely your responsibility.

No Award Guarantee
DLASB does not guarantee that any bid placed using its analysis or recommendations will be awarded. Procurement history and AI pricing suggestions are intelligence — government award decisions are not predictable.
No Amendment Tracking
DLASB analyzes the PDF you upload at that moment. It does not detect or notify you of amendments, due-date changes, cancellations, or spec revisions the government may issue afterward.
Your Responsibility
Always re-check your solicitation on DIBBS or SAM.gov immediately before submitting your bid. Verify nothing has been amended, the due date hasn't shifted, and the specs you analyzed still apply.

Successful contractors are the ones who actually understand what the government is asking for. DLASB exists to make that understanding faster and clearer — not to replace your judgment, your due diligence, or your final bid review.
