About this IDV

The Department of Agriculture's Risk Management Agency (RMA) awarded a $250,000 single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Alan KER Consulting, a for-profit sole proprietorship, to provide actuarial and underwriting expert review services for policies, plans of insurance, and related materials as required by the Federal Crop Insurance Act. This 5-year BPA, valid through September 2028, enables the RMA to rapidly issue task orders for Alan KER Consulting to perform confidential assessments and validations of insurance submissions to ensure actuarial soundness and compliance with underwriting criteria. Concurrently, the RMA also issued a $6,000 firm fixed price task order under the BPA for a 3-week expert review of a confidential insurance product submission. As the federal agency responsible for administering crop insurance and disaster assistance programs for American farmers and ranchers, the RMA utilizes this BPA to efficiently procure third-party evaluation services to fulfill its oversight responsibilities for these critical risk management initiatives.
