REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
FOR
2024 CONTRACT FOR
Pre- and Post- Disaster Consulting Services
 
The Parish of Livingston is soliciting a Request for Proposal (RFP)/Solicitation for Pre- and Post-Disaster Consulting Services prior to and in the event of a natural or man-made catastrophe.
 
Our community is subject to the ravages of such disasters and catastrophes. Therefore, as set forth by FEMA and other federal agencies, each community should be prepared in advance for such an occurrence. One step in this process is to contract with qualified firms to assist the parish prior to an event and be on standby to assist immediately in the response, logistics, and/or recovery from any such disaster.
 
We are therefore soliciting proposals from experienced disaster management and emergency response firms for pre- and post-disaster consulting services. This solicitation contains detailed requirements and directions. Please follow them very closely. Failure to follow these directions, provide the required attachments, or submit the proposal in the required format, may lead to disqualification.
 
Proposers shall be judged on multiple criteria, not primarily on price, and the firm or firms found to be the most qualified, and in the Owner’s best interest, shall be selected.  Minority, women-owned, and small disadvantaged businesses are encouraged to participate.  Please note this time and date.
 
Interested parties are invited to obtain a Request for Proposal package by contacting Mr. Shannon D. Dyer at (225) 686-3066 or by sending an e-mail request to [email protected] or by mailing a written request to Mr. Shannon D. Dyer, Deputy Director, P.O. Box 1060, Livingston, LA 70754.
