MANAGEMENT COMMENTS; CONCLUSION; Chapter 3: INTERNATIONAL FOOD AID: BETTER AGENCY COLLABORATION NEEDED TO ASSESS AND IMPROVE EMERGENCY FOOD AID PROCUREMENT SYSTEM; WHY GAO DID THIS STUDY; WHAT GAO RECOMMENDS; WHAT GAO FOUND; ABBREVIATIONS; BACKGROUND; USDA AND USAID DISAGREE ON WBSCM'SUSEFULNESS IN MANAGING THE INTERNATIONALEMERGENCY FOOD AID PROCUREMENT PROCESS.The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) reduces the average delivery time frame for emergency food aid by prepositioning food domestically- that is, in warehouses in the United States-and overseas. This book examines the effects of prepositioning on emergency food aid delivery time frames; the effects of prepositioning on the costs of the food aid; and the extent to which the agency monitors prepositioning to maximize time savings and cost effectiveness.
