CANBERRA — The downward trend in the number and value of forecast opportunities listed with the United States Agency for International Development continued this quarter.
At the associated business call, which took place in Washington D.C., on June 28, the agency highlighted the growing importance of small business partners and a direction to encouraging self-reliance among the countries they are currently supporting.
Despite a slowing in opportunities, the third quarter of 2018 has seen some new and changing business opportunities as well as clarity in changes that will impact procurement practices within the agency.
