23 teams entered the 2006 TAC SCM competition.
The finals were held over three days at AAMAS 2006 in Hakodate, Japan. TacTex-06 advanced to the final day of competition and won with an average score of $5.8 million. Of the additions to the 2005 agent included in TacTex-06, the use of learning to predict future changes in computer prices appeared to be most beneficial. By selling the computers it produced when prices were highest, TacTex-06 was able to obtain higher profits than other agents, especially during the early part of each game.
