Seton Avenue, Emmitsburg, MD, 21727-8998, intends to award a sole-source contract to the Southern California Earthquake Center, for earthquake risk awareness and preparedness support services. The Southern California Earthquake Center outreach activities support ShakeOut, QuakeSmart, America's PrepareAthon! and other regional and national earthquake and multi-hazard community education activities, develops stakeholder partnership with industry, private sector and other stakeholder groups and increases implementation of earthquake and multi-hazard community education activities. The Southern California Earthquake Center is the only organization that is recognized by FEMA to provide these services. The Contractor shall furnish all necessary contract personnel, materials, service, equipment and facilities to moderate high seismic risk under the following activities by providing expert consulting services, program evaluation, research and analysis, partnership development, outreach and educational materials, and regional support.

For this support, FEMA OCPO intends to award a contract to the Southern California Earthquake Center having a (1) year performance period. The proposed contract is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the Government to not compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government, and information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The Government/FEMA will not be responsible for paying for any of the costs incurred and associated with the development of any responses submitted to this posting.
