Philippines: Vessel Traffic Management System Feasibility Study
The Philippines Department of Transportation (DOTr) invites qualified U.S. firms to submit qualifications and proposal data to perform a feasibility study assessing an expanded vessel traffic management system in the Philippines. The study includes assessing potential implementation locations, analyzing the required VTMS architecture and infrastructure, evaluating the Philippine Coast Guard's existing Cebu VTMS and capacity-building needs, and preparing an implementation plan. USTDA will fund the selected firm's work through a $979,270 grant to DOTr; this is a contractor proposal opportunity rather than a grant application, and the proposal deadline was extended to 5:00 a.m. EDT on August 14, 2026.
