UNCW anticipates awarding contracts to multiple vendors and makes no commitment to any specific funding or volume of services; vendors assume all costs associated with proposal preparation and performance.
Services encompass professional planning, consulting, and interim recovery in homeland security, emergency response, disaster recovery, and all-hazards planning, with particular expertise required in university environments and emergency operations. Vendors must demonstrate extensive experience, qualified personnel, and ability to respond quickly when services are requested.

Pricing shall be submitted as hourly rates by position level from Partner/Principal through Administrative Assistant, with both standard and discounted rates to UNCW. Annual escalation adjustments are permitted based on the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) for the preceding June-to-June period, with no adjustment for deflation.
The initial contract term is three years beginning on the effective date of execution, with options for up to two additional one-year renewal terms at the State's sole discretion. The State will provide written notice of renewal intent no later than 30 days before the end of the current term. The RFP is funded with federal funds subject to FEMA compliance certifications and requirements.
Vendors must be registered with the North Carolina Secretary of State and demonstrate financial stability. Insurance requirements include employer's liability of $1,000,000, commercial general liability of $2,000,000 combined single limit, and automobile coverage of $1,000,000.
