Public Assistance Technical Assistance Contracts II (PA TAC II)

The Public Assistance Technical Assistance Contracts II (PA TAC II) is a Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle established by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to provide comprehensive technical support for public disaster recovery operations. The contract focuses on delivering expert technical assistance for federal disaster grant programs, specifically supporting debris removal, emergency protective measures, and the repair, replacement, and restoration of publicly owned facilities and certain private non-profit (PNP) organization facilities. The vehicle enables FEMA to rapidly deploy technical specialists, project managers, and subject matter experts to support disaster response and recovery efforts across multiple states and disaster declarations.

Task orders under this contract are consistently structured as time and materials contracts, with typical values ranging from approximately $25,000 to over $24 million and performance periods spanning from a few months to several years. The task orders predominantly support specific disaster recovery operations, such as technical assistance for hurricanes (including Hurricane Irene), winter storms, and various state-specific disaster declarations like FEMA-4020-DR-NY and FEMA-1355-DR-OK. Prime contractors include Emergency Response Program Management Consultants (ERPMC), a subsidiary of AECOM, and Fluor, who have been awarded multiple task orders. None of the task orders utilized specific set-aside designations, indicating open competition among qualified contractors. The contract vehicle supports disaster recovery efforts across multiple states, with notable task order locations including New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, North Carolina, and Kansas, demonstrating its nationwide operational scope.
