Hazard Mitigation Plan

The Worcester County solicitation seeks proposals from qualified consulting firms to revise and update the 2020 Hazard Mitigation Plan, ensuring it meets FEMA standards for approval. The project aims to produce a FEMA-compliant plan that enhances hazard mitigation strategies for Worcester County, Maryland. The procurement is valued between $50,000 and $150,000, with the deadline for proposal submission set for October 28, 2025, at 2:30 pm. Interested vendors must obtain proposal documents through the County’s procurement channels, check for any addenda, and submit sealed proposals to the County Government Center in Snow Hill. The process emphasizes transparency, with proposals publicly opened and only vendor names read aloud, and encourages minority business participation. The contract emphasizes FEMA compliance as the primary standard for acceptance, with no specific federal clauses, FAR provisions, or detailed evaluation criteria explicitly referenced in the available documents. Vendors are responsible for ensuring their proposals are complete and accurate, and late submissions will be rejected. Administrative details such as payment offices, invoicing procedures, and specific contract management personnel are not specified, but the County’s procurement officer provides contact information for document requests and inquiries. The solicitation underscores the importance of adherence to submission deadlines, the responsibility of vendors to monitor for updates, and the encouragement of diverse vendor participation, particularly from minority-owned businesses.
