FEMA is pursuing a sole source acquisition for a proprietary nationwide residential construction cost database to support disaster assistance programs. - The database is powered by RS Means software and exclusively provided by Gordian. - Delivered in MS Access format, it includes licenses, updates, and technical support. - The contract is justified as sole source due to Gordian's unique data rights and compatibility with FEMA's systems. - The anticipated contract value is $1,005,932, covering fiscal years 2021 to 2026. - FEMA's market research found no viable alternatives; the database is essential for Individual Assistance systems like NEMIS and Salesforce-based platforms. - FEMA plans to explore strategies to increase competition in future years.
