§ 7-1.101 Purpose.

The Agency for International Development Procurement Regulations (AIDPR) supplement the Federal Procurement Regulations (FPR) and implement the procurement related aspects of the Foreign Assistance Act, Executive order 11223, and established AID policies on procurement as set forth in Supplement B to AID Handbook 1. The AIDPR provides for the codification and publication of procedures for the procurement of services and personal property by AID. [42 FR 27601, May 31, 1977]

§ 7-1.102 Authority.

AIDPR is prepared by the Assistant Administrator for Program and Management Services by direction of the Administrator of AID pursuant to the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, complies with the Federal Procurement Regulations System, and implements and supplements the Federal Procurement Regulations (FPR). See FPR 11.0.

§ 7-1.103 Applicability.

(a) Unless a deviation is specifically authorized in accord with AIDPR 71.107, or unless otherwise provided, FPR and AIDPR apply to all procurements (regardless of currency of payment) of personal property and nonpersonal services to which AID is a direct party. This regulation does not apply to procurements by other parties, such as borrowers and grantees, which are financed under programs administered in whole or part by AID, nor to contracts entered into jointly by AID and the borrower or grantee to make a procurement from a third source for an overseas program or activity.

(b) At Missions where joint administrative services are arranged, procuring offices may apply the Department of State Procurement Regulations (DOSPR)/FPR for all administrative and technical support procurement except in defined areas. The defined

areas and administrative guidelines for procurement will be furnished to the overseas Missions by the Office of Management Operations. Administrative and local support services include the procurement accountability, maintenance and disposal of all office and residential equipment and furnishings, vehicles and expendable supplies purchased with administrative and/or technical support funds, either dollars or local currency.

§ 7-1.104-1 Relation to Federal Procurement Regulations Systems.

Parts 50 through 99 of AIDPR will be used for procurement policies and procedures for which FPR has or is not expected to have a counterpart. See FPR 1-1.0.
