Purchase Order AGINTSS160002A

This federal contract award was issued by the USDA's Kansas City Commodity Office to Gisa Global Inspection Survey Agency, an Ethiopia-based small business. The $100,000.00 firm fixed price purchase order is for critical marine cargo discharge and delivery survey services to support USDA food aid programs in Ethiopia, such as Food for Peace. Gisa Global specializes in monitoring and facilitating the distribution of U.S. agricultural commodities donated for emergency and development assistance. The contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, is part of two larger indefinite delivery contracts valued at up to $1 million each that enable the USDA to procure Gisa Global's inspection and logistics support services for its international food aid efforts. These contract vehicles highlight the agency's ongoing reliance on Gisa Global's local expertise in Ethiopia to help ensure the quality and accountability of American agricultural product donations throughout the supply chain.
