Original Date Posted: September 22, 2011 10:41 pmTitle: CLOSED-Regional Disaster Coordination Plan: Training, Exercise & Evaluation Program RFP-OEM-2011-RTRA . Ebid number is OEM-2011-RTRA
Project Description: Under the auspices of the Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program (RCPGP), the Seattle Office of Emergency Management seeks the services of a qualified contractor to develop and implement a training, exercise and evaluation program in support of the Puget Sound Regional Catastrophic Disaster Coordination Plan (hereafter “Coordination Plan”).
The RCPGP region covers eight counties: Whatcom, Skagit, Island, Snohomish, King, Pierce, Thurston, Mason and Kitsap Counties. Funding for the Plan preparation comes from the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), in response to direction by Congress to develop “all-hazard regional catastrophic event plans and preparedness.” A 21-member steering committee known as the Puget Sound Regional Catastrophic Planning Team (RCPT) approves the RCPGP products for submission to FEMA Region X and the FEMA Preparedness Branch at National Headquarters.
The Coordination Plan provides strategies and mechanisms for regional coordination after a catastrophic incident. The Plan focuses on tools to better link local emergency operations centers and managers to each other and to their state and federal counterparts. An electronic copy of the Draft Coordination Plan is available upon request.
Engineer’s Estimate: $50,000
Proposal Due Date and Time: 10/14/2011, 5:00 PM
