The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)'s mission is to support our citizens and first responders to ensure that, as a nation, we work together to build, sustain, and improve our capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards. FEMA receives its authority from the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), P.L. 93-288, as amended at 42 USC 5121-5207. After an emergency or major disaster has impacted a community, FEMA ESF #6 services and programs are implemented to assist disaster survivors. ESF #6 (Mass Care/Emergency Assistance, Temporary and Permanent Housing and Human Services) coordinates and provides life-sustaining resources, essential services, and statutory programs to the affected population with a focus on hydration, feeding, sheltering, and temporary and permanent housing. All services and support must include equal access to the whole community, inclusive of people with disabilities and others with access and functional needs, according to the Stafford Act as amended, PKEMRA, the Rehabilitation Act, and other civil rights legislation. Family reunification and the distribution of emergency supplies may also be implemented. During mass evacuations, Mass Care services may also be required to support the displaced population. This level of support is provided, in most cases, upon request of the state, when the needs of disaster survivors exceed local, state, tribal, territorial, and/or insular area government capabilities. State, tribal, and local governments have primary responsibility for the delivery of Mass Care to disaster survivors in their jurisdictions. This is accomplished primarily through state-designated government or voluntary agencies/organizations, and staffed by state and local government employees and/or voluntary organization workers. FEMA understands that no single organization can meet these requirements single-handedly. Therefore, contract services will be needed to fill potential gaps and augment state, local, tribal, territorial and NGO response capabilities in both the Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside Continental United States (OCONUS).When resources within a jurisdiction become overwhelmed, FEMA is tasked with developing and maintaining capabilities, and ensuring those capabilities are in place to support and augment existing resources. To meet these requirements, any offeror selected by FEMA must have the capacity to mobilize supplies, trained staff, and other resources quickly and integrate activities with the overall Whole Community strategy. FEMA seeks to enhance its capability through the integration of private sector contract resources into an overarching strategy to bridge shortfalls between Whole Community capabilities and the projected life-sustaining needs of evacuees and disaster survivors during declared events. This includes support to individuals with disabilities and their service animals, others with access and functional needs, children in disasters, and survivors with household pets. The Individual Assistance Support Contract (IASC) is intended to improve the quality and delivery of IA program services through the provision of rapidly deployable resources to bridge shortfalls between the organic capabilities of government and NGO stakeholders. FEMA is seeking support for its mission and delivery of ESF #6 Mass Care/Emergency Assistance, Temporary and Permanent Housing Services under an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. Mass Care/EA planning is the provision of life sustaining services, assistance and support. FEMA provides this assistance at the request of state, tribal, territorial and local government. This contract also supports temporary and permanent housing for displaced persons. Furthermore, this contract will require the development of appropriate management, training and operational plans to meet these requirements. The following is a list of services required in this contract: 1. Steady State and Planning Support Services 2. Mobilization and Deployment 3. Congregate and Non-congregate Sheltering Services 4. Feeding Services 5. Distribution of Emergency Supplies 6. Evacuee Services 7. Reunification Services 8. Construction Services 9. Staffing Support Services THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) for the DRAFT REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 15.201(c) (7) AND FAR 52.215-3. This is NOT a Request for Proposal (RFP), request for quotation, or an invitation for bid.
