This is a Request for Prequalification (RFPQ) document issued by the North Carolina Department of Public Safety, Division of Emergency Management (NCEM), Hazard Mitigation Office, for Prime Contractors specializing in residential property acquisition and structure demolition services. The solicitation seeks to establish an ongoing list of qualified prime contractors capable of performing project scoping, pre-construction services, construction and demolition activities, post-construction services, and closeout services for eligible residential structures across North Carolina. Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis, and this prequalification is the first phase of a potential contract that may subsequently include an Invitation to Bid (IFB), Best and Final Offers (BAFOs), and additional amendments. Vendors previously qualified under RFPQ 19-RFPQ-1653309857-GSX for acquisition and demolition services are not required to reapply under this solicitation; however, all qualified contractors must reapply when the next prequalification period is posted. Qualified Award Memos must be submitted with future bid packages.

The RFPQ does not itself constitute a binding contract but rather establishes a framework for future project opportunities administered by NCEM's Hazard Mitigation program. Prequalified contractors will be eligible to bid on individual residential construction service projects as they arise. Contractors should note that requalification will be mandatory upon the posting of the next prequalification period, ensuring that the contractor roster remains current and meets evolving program requirements.
