The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is seeking a contractor for the provision and distribution of Transportable Temporary Housing Unit (TTHU) Bedroom Living Kits for disaster survivors. These kits, which include essential items like bedding and linens, are designed to address the immediate needs of individuals in temporary housing following disasters, thereby promoting a sense of normalcy and stability. The contract emphasizes the importance of timely delivery, efficiency in assembly and packaging, and compliance with environmental standards, such as using Bio-Preferred items. The contractor is responsible for material selection, assembling kits, and ensuring proper packing for durability during storage and transport, with specifications including size constraints for delivery and packaging that can withstand various climate conditions. Labeling of kits must include details such as type, packaging date, and provider information to facilitate effective inventory management and distribution. The contract spans a base period of 12 months, with options for four additional years. By enhancing the quality of life for disaster-affected individuals, FEMA demonstrates its commitment to comprehensive disaster relief and recovery initiatives, using innovative practices to improve response capabilities.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), under the Department of Homeland Security, issued a Sources Sought Notice to gather information from small businesses capable of supplying Bedroom Living Kits for disaster survivors in Transportable Temporary Housing Units (TTHUs). This initiative aligns with FEMA's mission to support individuals affected by disasters by ensuring immediate and temporary housing solutions. The Kits will contain essential household items to assist survivors in regaining stability. This solicitation does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) and is for market research only. FEMA plans to establish a Firm Fixed Price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with selected contractors for on-demand supply of these kits. Interested parties are required to submit a Capabilities Statement detailing their relevant experiences, compliance measures, logistical capabilities, and capacity for fulfilling such supplies. The Notice emphasizes that responses should be submitted in specific formats before the deadline of January 21, 2025. The submission must provide comprehensive information about the company’s qualifications, and any feedback on the Performance Work Statement (PWS) is welcomed. Overall, the document stresses the importance of preparing for potential RFPs while clarifying the government's non-commitment at this stage.
