About this opportunity

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has awarded a sole-source order to IBM for continued Customer and Data Services support for the National Flood Insurance Program Risk MAP information technology environment, with a total estimated value of $24,004,106.40.

FEMA justifies the sole-source award under the Multiple-Award Schedule Program on the basis of continuity of statutorily mandated NFIP services during transition to a competitively awarded operations and maintenance solution. The order covers a 6-month base period worth $15,325,444.37, followed by two optional 3-month periods valued at $5,006,788.26 and $3,671,873.77 respectively. The requirement includes operation and maintenance of the Risk MAP IT environment and Risk Analysis and Management Cloud system with cybersecurity operations; FEMA Mapping and Insurance eXchange contact center operations; engineering library and Letter of Map Change clearinghouse operations; management and publication of NFIP flood hazard data serving over 22,000 stakeholders; and transition-related activities including knowledge transfer to follow-on contractors. This order is a follow-on to HHS GWAC IDIQ Contract No. HHSN316201200030W, Task Order 70FA6023F00000039, whose current performance period ends July 7, 2026, with all available extension mechanisms fully exercised. Administrative delays, budget constraints, USDA restructuring eliminating external interagency agreements, and DHS shutdown furloughs necessitated this interim bridge contract limited to minimum duration for orderly transition. FEMA conducted market research via RFI in March 2024 identifying 24 capable vendors and intends to return the requirement to full and open competition once appropriate procurement vehicles become available.

Notice text

The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) operates the Risk Mapping, Assessment, and Planning (Risk MAP) program that seeks to address gaps in flood hazard data, increase public awareness that drives action to reduce flood risk, support state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) stakeholders with risk-based mitigation planning, and provide authoritative flood hazard and flood risk data for the nation. The information system that supports the Risk MAP program and the NFIP is a compilation of a large complex multi-application system – the Risk Analysis & Management Cloud (RAM-C) System within the FEMA Federal Enterprise Cloud (FEC) Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment. Currently RAM-C is in post ADE-3 (Operations and Maintenance (O&M) phase) within the Acquisition Lifecycle Framework (ALF). RAM-C system serves over 200K total users and more than 1.1K authenticated FEMA users.
