This notice provides justification for awarding sole source interim contracts for housing inspection services. The Federal Emergency Management Agency awarded contracts 70FB7019D00000008 and 70FB7019D00000009 under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, which allows for a sole source award when only one responsible source is available and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency's requirements. The sole source interim contracts were awarded to conduct housing inspection services and were justified due to the need to maintain service levels and avoid disruption while a new competitive procurement is conducted for longer term contracts.
