The proposed ESIP Service Exchange Bank provides a formal mechanism to barter technical services. Points are “earned” by providing services to a Federation member and “spent” to obtain services from a different member. This Bank is modeled after many successful community exchange sevices. It will build on the existing database of Federation members and their skills. It will use an existing Drupal module. No dollar value is placed on the services, which will be measured in hours only, so no tax reporting requirements are involved. Registration and participation in this skills bank may be either individuals or their organizations.
