Ocean Transportation

Posted on this site are Ocean Transportation Request for Proposals (RFPs) as well as a listing of previous contract awards issued in the past six months. In addition to RFPs for direct USAID contracts, you will also find RFPs issued by Private Voluntary Organizations that participate in the P.L. 480 Food for Peace Title II program.

Also posted on this site are current cargo preference statistics which represent the tonnage amount and percentage of P.L. 480 Title I food aid cargo shipped on U.S. and foreign flag vessels for USAID's Food for Peace Program.

You can also find general information about the P.L. 480 Title II program and "Notices to the Trade," program participants and several links to other agencies' related websites. The Ocean Freight Reimbursement (OFR) Program is the oldest ongoing Private Voluntary Organization (PVO) support program, allowing recipients to ship a wide variety of goods overseas for use in privately funded development and humanitarian assistance programs. The Denton Program allows private U.S. citizens and organizations to use space available on U.S. military cargo planes to transport humanitarian goods, such as clothing, food, medical and educational supplies, and agricultural equipment and vehicles, to countries in need.
