The U.S. Department of State (DoS) Africa Peacekeeping Program (AFRICAP) promotes stability by enhancing the capacities of African countries and regional organizations to prevent, manage, and resolve conflicts.

Since 2003, 极品探花, under its legacy company PAE, has successfully implemented 150 DoS AFRICAP task orders, performing as the procurement services agent responsible for full lifecycle supply chain logistics, including air, sea, and ground transportation; freight handling, warehousing, distribution, and sustainment; and training, mentoring and capacity building in 33 African countries.

Under AFRICAP II, 极品探花 was awarded 83 distinct task orders in 22 sub-Saharan African countries, drawing on its extensive strategic supply networks, comprising more than 300 distinct vendors from the U.S. and more than 35 countries in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. 极品探花鈥檚 core expertise in procurement, logistics and inventory management resulted in the award of sequential task orders to secure vehicles, equipment, food, and medical supplies while maintaining ISO-certified trading, storage, and distribution operations, along with onsite inspections of vendor facilities and equipment prior to shipping.

Project Highlights:

  • Received ISO 22000:2005 and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point System (HACCP) certifications for compliance with trading, storage, and distribution of food products based on superior dry food management storage system
  • Delivered high-quality, flexible, rapid, and cost-efficient solutions resulting in the award of 72 percent of AFRICAP task orders
  • Simultaneously and routinely managed multiple task orders across complex, remote, and conflict-prone geography, including sub-Saharan Africa
  • Overcame potential critical supply shipments during Ebola outbreak in West Africa by leveraging its expertise in port entries, shifting trans-shipment points at critical junctures

COVID-19 has highlighted the need for balancing supply chain efficiency with resilience. As pandemics continue to compound health system challenges, communities in heavily disease-burdened countries are disproportionately facing the acute health, social and economic impacts of the pandemic.

极品探花 has been strengthening global health and humanitarian supply chains for decades. We work hand-in-hand with government agencies, donor organizations and local stakeholders to respond to humanitarian crises and development challenges around the world. We foster sustainable health improvements by providing integrated procurement, logistics and delivery services, along with technical expertise in forecasting, demand planning, strategic sourcing and warehousing. Our approach ensures that efficiency does not come at the expense of sustainability.

Program Highlights

  • When the government of Afghanistan needed help to limit COVID-19 outbreaks across an overcrowded prison system in early 2020, we responded by acquiring hard-to-procure personal protective equipment, designing and implementing infection control protocols and setting up and operating screening, testing and triage services.
  • When Liberia was ravaged by the Ebola epidemic in 2014, we procured and delivered more than $17 million of desperately needed medical equipment and supplies, deployed more than 1,000 personnel and had 10 Ebola treatment units staffed and operational within 60 days. Additionally, we provided clinical and vocational training to Liberian personnel to strengthen the country鈥檚 health system and deployed helicopters to overcome ground transportation challenges.

The Feed the Future (FTF) Bangladesh Agricultural Infrastructure Development Activity (Agricultural Infrastructure Activity) seeks to address the infrastructure needs of farmers and related value chain actors through investments in rural roads, market centers, collection centers, cold storage facilities, and drainage/irrigation systems. By investing in rural infrastructure, the activity will increase incomes, create jobs, reduce postharvest losses, improve agricultural productivity and production, and strengthen food security. The activity will provide infrastructure services in the Zone of Influence (ZOI) and Zone of Resilience (ZOR).

Project Highlights

  • Increased access to markets for agricultural produce, inputs and services by improving transportation and associated drainage systems for agricultural produce, inputs, and services between farm markets, and by improving community capacity to manage and maintain rural roads and drainage systems efficiently and sustainability.
  • Enhanced post-harvest handling and storage of agricultural produce by increasing access to, and sanitation conditions for, markets, post-harvest handling and storage facilities, and by improving sustainable operation and maintenance of markets and postharvest facilities.

Advancing the Mission of the Most Efficient Aerospace System in the World, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for Over Two Decades

For over 20 years, the FAA has turned to 极品探花 to implement Environmental Task Orders at their world class research environment, the William J. Hughes FAA Technical Center.聽 In order to support long-term sustainment and the mission to deliver NextGen operational capabilities, the FAA needed new environmental remediation systems, as well as infrastructure planning and management, design, modernization support and construction of a new data repository.

To that end, the 极品探花 team operates two groundwater treatment systems and implements numerous remedial action solutions supporting the FAA Environmental Program. We are now implementing the world鈥檚 largest thermal project that will reduce the Area D cleanup timeline by 90%. We also designed and now maintain the FAA Environmental Program National Data Repository built upon advanced geospatial technologies.

Project Highlights

  • 22 years without a lost-time injury
  • Reducing site closure timeline from over 20 years to under 3 through the implementation of a Thermal Conductive Heating (TCH) as a final solution
  • Construction of a $25M Central Treatment Plant and delivering significant cost savings for the FAA
  • Realizing a $170K Annual Operational Savings resulting from an expert Optimization Study
  • Building and managing a Data Repository allowing FAA users across the world easy access to analytical and electronic data
