What our clients say
Unison VAO continuously produces training webinars that are interesting and provide meaningful content. I enjoyed the Daily News to keep informed of acquisition issues.
I have used Unison VAO for years. I found it invaluable as a source of news and trends from other agencies and thoughtful/accurate publications on a wide variety of topics.
“A large reduction in the backlog of data item deliverable responses; reduced waste and increased throughput; and was able to improve its capability to operate more efficiently and effectively.”
“Implementing the Unison PM Suite enables COTRs, COs, and Industry the ability to efficiently create, manage efficiently, and track contract deliverables from a single website to support acquisition excellence.”
“TruePlanning provided the capability to quickly see the impact of alternative configurations and schedule on costs. That is a key benefit when trying to balance cost with customer operational requirements. In addition, TruePlanning provides an important view of program costs over time so that planned costs can be adjusted to comply with budgets.”
“TruePlanning empowers us to use relevant historical data when making a comparative evaluation of new requirements.”
“Unison CLM provides an intuitive, efficient, and integrated approach to answering data calls and fully complying with FAR/DFARS and agency-specific regulations.”
“No other solution comes close to matching what Unison CLM does for the full lifecycle of tracking modifications and managing FAR clauses.”
“We searched for several months, before concluding that only Unison CLM meets the core needs of government contractors; their team understands the requirements and demands of federal government contracting.”
“Unison CLM reduced Contract data calls significantly, allowing the Contracts Department to focus on managing active, revenue-producing contracts.”
