- Description
- The John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), Cambridge, MA, is performing an analysis of the potential macroeconomic impacts from automation of long-haul trucking. As part of this analysis, the Volpe Center requires the use of an accepted macroeconomic model and specialized contractor staff to perform scenario runs in this model. The United States Applied General Equilibrium - Highway (USAGE-Hwy) model is the only available model capable of identifying impacts of automating the long-haul trucking sector on the United States economy that accounts for linkages among costs of production, labor supply, household expenditures, and travel costs and also contains the appropriate industry definitions. USAGE-Hwy is proprietary to the Center of Policy Studies (CoPS) at Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia. Therefore, the Government intends to award a purchase order on a sole source basis under FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b) to Victoria University. The NAICS Code is 541990; the Small Business size standard is $15 million.
