New Blanket Purchase Agreement Created to Help USAID Access Experts

USAID Missions are encouraged to take advantage of a new opportunity to access short-term technical services in various fields, including local government, regional/urban planning, transportation, energy, ICT, and transportation. Interested USAID Missions may request more information about accessing services by going to this site on USAID's internal website.

Consulants may register to offer their services in these sectors by going to this link.

As the solicitation states on the FedBizzOpps website:

"USAID is piloting the use of BPAs with individuals instead of multiple Purchase Orders for similar requirements.  The full list of position descriptions is provided in Section B in the attached solicitation. The Designated Contractor (DC) will be required to perform a variety of professional services under a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA). A Blanket Purchase Agreement is a simplified method of procuring quantities of supplies or services that selected vendors are in a position to furnish, and eliminates the need for more complex acquisition methods. Designated Contractors must be a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder and must possess a valid passport.  The professional services ordered under this BPA will frequently require international travel."
