The General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Acquisition Service issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on January 16, 2026, for Joint Field Office (JFO) items under the Emergency Acquisition (EA) Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) established for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The justification supports the use of limited competition among 19 pre-qualified EA BOA contractors rather than full and open competition, enabling rapid procurement of emergency supplies and services with response times as quick as 5 hours and initial delivery within 24 hours. The contract, numbered 47QMCH26F0001, was awarded on the same date for an estimated value of $75,019.93 and covers a comprehensive range of emergency items and services including sheltering supplies, transportation, equipment rentals, catering, environmental remediation, waste disposal, and sanitation services. The limitation to EA BOA holders was justified through extensive market research conducted by GSA, including a Market Research as a Service report, a Request for Information, and an industry day, establishing that this pre-established pool of contractors provides the necessary flexibility and expedited ordering critical to emergency response operations. The specific awarded vendor information was not disclosed in the posting, though the agreement reserves capacity for annual reviews and potential on-ramping events to expand the contractor pool as needed.
