About this opportunity
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is conducting a Sources Sought Notice for Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Services to enhance its disaster response and emergency management capabilities. The agency seeks UAS aircraft with three primary capabilities: imagery collection at 1000' altitude, logistics/lift operations with 30-minute flight times and 200-pound payload capacity, and confined space navigation through complex environments. Interested contractors must submit a 10-page or less Statement of Capability by April 4, 2025, at 4:00 pm ET, demonstrating technical expertise and providing company information. Submissions must be emailed in PDF format to designated FEMA contacts and should include details about business size, socio-economic status, and SAM.gov registration. The market research exercise aims to gather comprehensive information about potential UAS service providers' technical capabilities, operational readiness, and compliance with regulatory standards.
The Sources Sought Notice does not include a specific set-aside designation, but FEMA encourages submissions from small businesses, including emerging, disadvantaged, Hub-zone, woman-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, and 8(a) certified firms. The contract will cover performance in the Continental United States, Hawaii, and US territories, with a base year and potential for four optional one-year extensions. While no specific award value is mentioned, the solicitation indicates a comprehensive requirement for UAS technologies across preparedness, response, and recovery phases. The Air Operations Program Office will oversee the UAS initiative, seeking advanced technological solutions that can provide critical support during emergency scenarios. Respondents are expected to provide detailed information about system specifications, acquisition and operational costs, personnel requirements, regulatory compliance, insurance, support logistics, and potential cost-effectiveness of their proposed UAS solutions.
