- Description
- This RFQ cancels previous RFQ DTMA1Q03003 and Offerors who submitted under RFQ DTMA1Q030003 must resubmit a proposal for consideration. The Maritime Administration is seeking consultant services to perform a detailed study regarding Comparison of Tax Regimes Affecting Vessels and Mariners in International Trade. The objectives of the study are as follows: (1) Tax analysis by a consultant with accountancy expertise and experience in assessing the differences in flag-state tax treatment of the 13 to 20, most popular merchant vessel registries and two or more, recently established or revised, European tonnage tax alternatives to corporate income taxes, listed under Scope of Work. (2) Creation of three matrix charts of suitable size and design for public presentation, to be used to compare vessel and citizen-mariner tax treatment under the U.S. flag relative to treatment under the foreign flags described under Scope of Work. (3) Development of a short written report that contrasts major differences in registry tax treatment on vessels and citizen mariners in international trade and summarizes U.S. tax policies that may serve as disincentives to ship-owners to place vessels in the U.S. register. All offerors who possess the knowledge and are capable of performing the described work are encouraged to submit capabilities statements and price quotations at the designated address by 2:00 p.m. eastern time, Tuesday, April 8, 2003 to Krista N. French, Contract Specialist. The statement of work is available upon written request to Krista.French@marad.dot.gov. The Government anticipates the cost of this study to be in the range of $20,000 to $40,000. A purchase order will be awarded to the offeror who is determined to be responsible and who?s cost proposal and technical capabilities represent the best value to the government.
