摘要: Abstract The competitive bid process used by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) to procure food supplies and transportation services for humanitarian aid is subject bidder gaming that can increase prices deter competition. Additionally, suppliers carriers are matched after submission, preventing synergies from coordinated planning. Given these concerns, we determine optimal auction mechanism minimize then justify pre-bid planning between using properties cost distribution functions. We operationalize changes with a uniform price auction. improved should gaming, enhance participation, delivered volumes.
