- Description
- Alternate Contract RFI The United States Agency for International Development is requesting information regarding ocean transportation contracts for the carriage of food assistance commodities under the Food for Peace program for both emergency and development purposes. The information you provide will assist USAID in improving its transportation methods and in structuring potential solicitations. Specifically, USAID is seeking input on the feasibility of incorporating alternate types of ocean transportation contracts for use in its food aid program. These may include service contracts, time charter arrangements, contracts of affreightment, or other instruments with potential to offer benefits over the existing booking notes and voyage charter parties used by program participants. The focus of the study is to determine the effect alternate contract types would have on the overall “landed cost” of purchasing and delivering food aid as well as the potential impact on programmatic and logistical flexibility.
