Advancing HIV & AIDS Epidemic Control (AHEC) Project
This is a limited-competition acquisition under AIDAR 706.302-70(b)(3)(ii) and the Expedited Procedures Package (EPP), based on a determination that full and open competition would impair foreign assistance objectives. The authority is tied to USAID/Department of State PEPFAR programming and an HIV/AIDS EPP, with a memorandum of understanding delegating USAID procedures to DOS. The current EPP is effective from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2029. The justification relies on AIDAR to limit competition because proceeding with full and open competition at this stage would risk impairing a critical foreign assistance program.
