This is Addendum #1 to Request for Proposal #2026009-RFP1313 issued by the Columbia County Board of Commissioners in Georgia for Disaster Recovery Public Assistance Consulting Services. The RFP seeks qualified vendors to provide on-call consulting services for disaster recovery and public assistance, including technical, administrative, and training support for damage assessment, project estimation, FEMA force account documentation, grant administration, and federal procurement requirements review. No current projects requiring these services exist at the time of this RFP issuance. The addendum establishes a mandatory pre-proposal meeting that all interested vendors must attend, held remotely via WebEx on the specified date. Vendors must confirm their firm's attendance at the meeting by following directions provided during the session. The meeting access information includes a WebEx link, meeting number (713 160 366), phone dial-in number, and alternative video conferencing options.

Funding for these services must strictly conform to guidelines established by the Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Respondents must comply with Federal Aid Contract Requirements as specified in Exhibit A of the RFP and demonstrate familiarity with FEMA grant programs.
