RFP Scope:
FCC’s Portfolio Modeling & Data Science unit requires supplemental resources to provide both
thought leadership and execution support to its Adjudication and Capital & Allowance model
development teams for a 24-month period. As an institution that primarily lends to agricultural customers, FCC’s portfolio modelling focus is on loan/portfolio credit risk and overall capital management models.
FCC may also seek to engage the Consultant to perform start-to-finish adjudication and/or capital and allowance model development to augment FCC’s internal capacity or expertise. A designated Portfolio Modeling & Data Science project leader will be heavily involved in the management of the engagement(s) alongside the successful vendor. It is expected that all model development engagements would at minimum deliver a final document consistent with FCC's preferred format.
