Fire Safety & Hazard Mitigation Assessment

The City of Los Angeles has issued a subcontract to conduct a comprehensive fire hazard evaluation at a site located in the 91342 zip code within Los Angeles, recognized as being in a designated Fire Hazard Severity Zone. The work requires a detailed assessment of fire risks present at the location, including vegetation, topography, building materials, and proximity to wildland-urban interfaces, with the goal of identifying potential ignition sources and propagation pathways. The contractor must apply current fire safety standards and regional fire codes to analyze the site’s vulnerability and propose actionable mitigation measures to reduce risk to life, property, and infrastructure. The evaluation must result in a formal report that outlines specific recommendations such as fuel reduction strategies, defensible space enhancements, structural modifications, firebreak installations, or emergency access improvements. The contract, classified under NAICS code 541380 for other scientific and technical consulting services, is part of the city’s broader effort to align with state wildfire resilience initiatives. The solicitation was posted on June 24, 2026, and work is expected to be performed in alignment with local, state, and federal guidelines for fire hazard mitigation in high-risk areas. The project's official tracking link is accessible through the California Environmental Quality Act network.
