- Description
- RFI in PDF format 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. In August of 2016 Disaster Declaration 4277 (DR-4277-LA) was declared in response to severe flooding in various parishes throughout the state of Louisiana. As a result of DR-4277-LA response operations a potential need for dry trailers materialized. To further define the potential requirement and assets of the marketplace FEMA hereby issues this Request for Information /Sources Sought (RFI) in Accordance with F AR 15.201(c) (7) and FAR 52.215-3. The purpose of this RFI is to conduct market research and create an early exchange of information with industry to promote a better understanding of possible future acquisitions, and industry capabilities. Further, FEMA hopes to obtain knowledge and information for project planning purposes and explore alternative solutions while determining industry standards for dry trailer manufacturing as described herein. The information provided may be used by FEMA in developing its acquisition strategy. Upon review of responses received, FEMA may at its discretion contact one, more than one, all or none of the respondents to obtain additional information necessary to determine respondent capabilities. Responses to this RFI should not be construed as unsolicited proposals to - or providing preference in any contracting activity. This is NOT a Request for Quotation (RFQ), request for proposal (RFP), or an invitation for bid. An RFQ is not being issued at this time, and this notice shall not be considered as a commitment by the Government to issue a RFQ, nor does it restrict the Government to a particular acquisition approach. Requests for a solicitation will not receive a response. This is a Request for Information only. EQUIPMENT SPECIFICAITONS: Delivery of dry trailer shall be 21 days after receipt of order.

Both small and large business are encouraged to respond. As well as vendors local to the declared parishes and those outside the declared parishes.
