The purpose of this RFP is to establish multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts with qualified investment management firms to provide alternative fixed income investment management services to the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA/Authority) on an as-needed basis. Services shall be performed in accordance with the Authority’s investment policies and the requirements described in Section 2.

As a condition of selection and any subsequent investment allocation, each successful Offeror must be willing and able to trade within the Authority's designated custody accounts maintained at U.S. Bank. Offerors must comply with all applicable custody, trading, settlement, reporting, and operational requirements established by AIDEA and its custodian. Investment strategies that require alternative custodial arrangements or the transfer of Authority assets to another custodian will not be accepted. No investment allocation or trading authority will be granted until all required agreements, account documentation, and operational arrangements have been completed and approved by AIDEA.

Award of an IDIQ contract does not guarantee any Offeror an allocation of assets, minimum quantity of services, number of assignments, or amount of compensation.
