About this opportunity
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is seeking a contractor to design and implement a demonstration program that provides loan guarantees to developers and manufacturers of modular homes. This market research initiative, conducted by HUD's Office of Policy Development & Research, aims to reduce the perceived risk associated with lending during the manufacturing period of modular homes and increase access to capital for this sector. The contractor will be responsible for designing a loan guarantee product where federal funds cover the first loss tranche while a private insurer assumes the second loss position, ultimately driving greater volume and efficiency in modular home manufacturing. The government will evaluate potential contractors based on their ability to provide services, secure corporate resources, implement comprehensive project management plans, and operate a performance-based service acquisition contract. Interested parties must submit capability information by January 23, 2026, at 2 PM ET to Dwayne.E.Gist@hud.gov, with the understanding that this is a sources sought notice and submission is purely voluntary with no financial obligation to the government.
This pre-solicitation notice contains no set-aside designation, meaning the requirement may be procured through full and open competition or potentially set aside for small businesses as determined by HUD. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in this market research phase, and no incumbent contractors have been identified. The demonstration is expected to operate sustainably for a period of two to five years, during which the successful contractor must demonstrate that the conceptual approach is viable and has potential to improve the volume and efficiency of modular home production. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 522110 (Commercial Banking) and PSC code R711 (Support-Management: Banking), reflecting the financial services nature of the loan guarantee program. Multiple awards are possible, and no feedback will be provided to respondents regarding their submissions as part of this market research phase.
Notice text
HUD’s Office of Policy Development & Research is seeking a Contractor to implement a demonstration to increase the availability of financing to developers/manufacturers of modular[1] homes. HUD is interested in reducing the perceived risk of lending to developers/manufacturers of single and multifamily modular homes. The contractor will, in coordination with HUD, design a loan guarantee available to developers and manufacturers during the manufacturing period, a period which suffers from a perception of risk that makes it difficult to secure a loan for the expenses incurred during it. Federal funds would be used to support the contractor’s design, implementation and administration of the demonstration; the purpose would be to insure private lending so that access to capital increases, thus driving more volume and efficiency (faster, better, cheaper) in modular home manufacturing. To be successful, the demonstration contractor must show that its conceptual approach is viable and has the potential to improve the volume and efficiency of modular home production.
There is no solicitation at this time. This request for capability information does not constitute a request for proposals; submission of any information in response to this market survey is purely voluntary; the government assumes no financial responsibility for any costs incurred.
[1] Modular/Offsite Construction for purpose of the demonstration is defined as assembling building elements in a factory setting and transporting it for siting. For this demonstration, HUD is interested in working with closed-panel volumetric manufacturers who build to local code.
