1.4 Likewise, Section 75 of RA No. 12009 and its IRR provide that the PEs shall encourage active participation of registered sectors in all procurement activities by giving weight to gender parity, ethnic equity, and other social factors, and by integrating marginalized groups and socially responsible enterprises into government procurement.

This shall include, but not limited to, farmers and fisherfolk organizations or groups, individual farmers and fisherfolk, clusters of farmers and fisherfolk, and other analogous enterprises. Registration under the said Section 11 shall be deemed equivalent to accreditation.
4.2 Agricultural and Fishery Products – refer to locally-produced live, fresh, chilled, frozen and processed agricultural and fishery-based products including agricultural and fishery inputs directly produced by local farmers and fisherfolk.2
2 Section 2 (c) of the IRR of RA No. 11321.

These include, but are not limited to: seeds and vegetatively propagated planting materials; fingerlings and fry; fertilizers; feeds, feed additives, and silage.
4.4 Farmers and Fisherfolk Enterprise Development Information System (FFEDIS) – refers to a web-based information system designed to assist the government in formulating plans and programs on enterprise development, and to enable the producer groups, the private sector, and the LGUs and potential donors to respond to the needs of the local and world markets and in generating resources for further enterprise development. The information system shall contain (1) a registry of agricultural and fisheries enterprises, (2) list of possible and implemented programs and projects, to include procurement opportunities and awarded procurement contracts under Section 11 of the Sagip Saka Act, and (3) a roster of private companies engaged in these enterprises or have expressed interest in participating in the Program, and other information that may be identified by the DA or by the Farmers and Fisherfolk Enterprise Development Council created under Section 8 of the Sagip Saka Act. The FFEDIS is maintained by the Agribusiness and Marketing Assistance Service (AMAS) and its counterpart in the DA Regional Field Offices.
5.0 PROCEDURE
The PEs are guided by the following in the conduct of procurement of agricultural and fishery products under RA No. 11321:
5.1 The PEs shall prepare the project requirements, with the following minimum details:
a. Project Name;
b. Approved Budget for the Contract (ABC);
c. Technical Specifications;
d. Date of Delivery or Implementation;
e. Required quantity; and
f. Other relevant information that the PE may require.
5.2 The PEs shall formulate their project requirements and determine appropriate terms and contract arrangements based on their needs and the capability of the market as determined through market scoping pursuant to Section 10 of RA No. 12009 and its IRR.
5.2.1 In all cases, the government purchase price shall be set at a level higher than the prevailing farmgate price, provided that such price shall remain reasonable, not grossly disadvantageous to the government, and consistent with validated price monitoring reports, including the Data Price Index (DPI).
4
5.2.2 In determining the best offer, the PE shall be guided by both quality and price considerations. The PE may adopt the prevailing prices monitored and published by the DA and/or the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), as well as the DPI issued, as may be applicable, pursuant to RA No. 12022 or the Anti-Agricultural Economic Sabotage Act.
5.2.3 Where necessary to encourage farmers and fisherfolk to sell to the government, the DA, in consultation with the Inter-agency Committee on Inflation and Market Outlook or other equivalent agencies, may set reference prices higher than prevailing farmgate prices. Such prices shall remain reasonable, not grossly disadvantageous to the government, and consistent with validated price monitoring reports, including the DPI.
5.2.4 To ensure fair and transparent procurement, the DA shall implement safeguards such as price monitoring, reporting, and validation of market data. These measures provide the PEs with guidance on what constitutes a reasonable price and promote confidence in undertaking negotiated procurement, while mitigating risks of price manipulation, collusion, or unjustified price escalation.
5.2.5 To avoid multiple contracts or transactions for a single Procurement Project where no single FFCE can provide the total quantity, the procurement shall, whenever practicable, be undertaken by lot or package, subject to the available budget, required quantity, product availability, delivery sites, geographical location, and market capacity, consistent with Section 39.1 of RA No. 12009. In the conduct of such procurement, purchases shall be made first from eligible FFCEs within the locality, adhering to the quality and pricing policies provided in Section 5. If such supply is unavailable or insufficient, procurement should then be made from FFCEs in nearby areas, followed by FFCEs in nearby provinces.
5.2.6 For projects falling under RA No. 11037 or the “Masustansyang Pagkain para sa Batang Pilipino Act” and similar Programs, Activities, Projects (PAPs) like the Government Feeding Program, the PE has the option to implement the supply mapping and allocation among various supplier-farmers and fisherfolk of the agricultural and fishery products as required in the PAPs.
5.2.7 In the determination of the ABC, the hauling or delivery fee shall be considered and included.
5.2.8 The PE shall indicate the adoption of the Negotiated Procurement-Sagip Saka (NP-SS) as the mode of procurement to be adopted in the Project Procurement Management Plan (PPMP).
5.2.9 Upon validation of the budget for the Procurement Project by the budget office or equivalent unit, the project shall be included in the Annual Procurement Plan (APP) and approved by the Head of the Procuring Entity (HoPE) or its duly authorized representative.
5
5.3 The Bids and Awards Committee (BAC), through its Secretariat, shall post all negotiated procurement opportunities under the Sagip Saka Act for accredited FFCEs in the FFEDIS3, on the official website of the PE, and in a conspicuous place within the premises of the PE reserved for this purpose, for a period of at least three (3) calendar days to promote transparency, ensure information dissemination, and encourage wider participation.

5.14 Upon receipt of the payment following the satisfactory delivery of the project requirements, the FFCE shall acknowledge such receipt by signing the disbursement voucher prepared by the PE for the purpose.
