The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a civilian agency, awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to DH Jackson Long Term Disaster Recovery Committee Inc. (DHJ), a small, non-profit, Black American-owned business, to provide maritime shipping and inter-island freight forwarding services throughout the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. The BPA has a ceiling value of $23,690 and a period of performance from December 8, 2023 to December 7, 2025. FEMA has also issued two BPA calls under this contract, one for $2,000 to support disaster recovery logistics operations in St. Thomas, USVI, and another for $2,380.34 to transport GSA vehicles between islands during an executive visit. DHJ, which specializes in providing disaster recovery services in the Caribbean region, has a history of federal contracts with FEMA and other agencies to deliver logistics, transportation, and maintenance support. The original FEMA solicitation sought an inter-island freight forwarder to provide on-call delivery and transportation services of supplies via air, sea, and land throughout the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. The requirement was set aside for small businesses, with an anticipated 10 services within a 6-month period and a potential contract value of up to $500,000 over the 2-year base and option periods. The contract was awarded as a multiple-award, firm fixed-price BPA with a base period from December 8, 2023 to June 7, 2024, and three option periods extending through December 7, 2025.
