(i)           This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.  This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

(ii)          Solicitation SP450024R0021 is issued as a request for proposal (RFP).

(iii)         This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2024-06, Effective August 29, 2024.

(iv)         This acquisition is being issued as a full and open competition on an unrestricted basis; the associated NAICS code is 562211; the small business size standard is $47M.

(v)          See the attached Price Schedule.  IMPORTANT EXCEL INFORMATION ‐ please note that Excel doesn’t always use the visible price when executing formulas. If the cell is formatted for currency in USD, the visible price will always show the amount to the nearest cent. However, when an additional formula is used to calculate a unit price, for example an escalation from a base period unit price to an option period unit price, Excel uses the actual amount, not the price rounded to the nearest cent that is displayed in the cell on the spreadsheet. The amount shown in the formula bar, not the cell, is the figure Excel uses for calculations. This can cause inconsistencies between the extended price shown for a CLIN and the offered unit price and subsequent inconsistencies in the total price for the schedule. Unit prices rounded to the nearest cent must be inputted into the spreadsheet. The unit price shown in the cell is the figure we will use to evaluate the price proposal. Offerors are advised to make sure there are not inconsistencies between the unit price shown and the figure in the formula bar for that cell.

(vi)         See the solicitation for a description of the requirement.

(vii)        The contract is anticipated to have a 30-month base period from February 2025 to August 2027 and a 30-month option period.  See the solicitation attachment 3 for a list of pickup locations.

(viii)       The provision at FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors -- Commercial, applies to this acquisition.  See the solicitation attachment 8 for addenda to the provision.  Be advised IAW FAR 52.212-1(g), the Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

Multi-Family Lease and Repair (MLR) Request for Information (RFI) No. 70FBR425I00000006

THIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) is issued in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10 – Market Research. This RFI does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP), Invitation for Bid (IFB), or Request for Quotation (RFQ), and it is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to enter into a contract, nor will the Government pay for the information submitted in response to this request. All information contained in this RFI is preliminary and is subject to change if, and when, a solicitation is issued. Responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the U.S. Government to form a binding contract. If a competitive solicitation is released, it may be synopsized on the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) website. It is the responsibility of the interested parties to monitor this site for additional information pertaining to any RFIs, or future solicitations.

BACKGROUND.

Multi-family Lease and Repair (MLR) is a form of Direct Temporary Housing Assistance that allows the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to repair or make improvements to existing multifamily rental property for the purpose of providing temporary housing to eligible applicants who are displaced due to Hurricane Debby (DR-4806-FL), Hurricane Helene (DR-4828-FL), and Hurricane Milton (DR-4834-FL). FEMA may utilize this form of temporary housing assistance for eligible applicants who are unable to use rental assistance due to lack of available resources.

Limitations and Exclusions: MLR is not intended to repair or improve individual rental properties to re-house existing tenants. Hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, etc., are not considered residential properties and are not authorized for MLR. FEMA will not approve additional increases beyond the FMR approved by the Assistant Administrator for Recovery for the disaster.

PROJECT SCOPE/DELIVERABLES.

FEMA is seeking multi-family rental properties (two or more units) in the designated Florida counties listed under Individual Assistance on the FEMA’s Disasters and Other Declarations | FEMA.gov website for Hurricane Debby (DR-4806-FL), Hurricane Helene (DR-4828-FL), and Hurricane Milton (DR-4834-FL), and any future designated counties. The properties should be in the county within thirty (30) to up to sixty (60) minutes commuting distance of the affected areas in the State of Florida. FEMA is seeking owners of rental properties (apartment complexes primarily) that could be potentially repaired to local, state, and federal codes/standards and offered as temporary housing for FEMA applicants in a timely manner for up to 18 months from the date of declaration, unless extended. The properties should be complexes that are able to accommodate a considerable number of people in a single location. Each property must have been previously used as a multi-family housing complex and contain two or more rental units. The site must be repairable within a four-month period and cannot be in a floodway. Within this program, there is no rental cost for the eligible applicant. The repair costs are funded by the State/FEMA and the value of these repairs are deducted from the value of the rental services contract between the FEMA and the property owner, and/or property management company, if applicable.

PROPERTY REQUIREMENTS & PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION CRITERIA

Owners of multi-family properties meeting the criteria below who are interested in participating in the MLR program are encouraged to respond to this RFI:

• The property must have been previously used as multi-family housing;

• A provision granting FEMA the option to extend the contract, if FEMA extends the period of assistance beyond 18 months;
• A provision granting FEMA the option of releasing the unit to the owner and ceasing all monthly payments for the unit at any time by providing thirty days’ notice;
• A provision allowing FEMA to make reasonable accommodation and/or modification repairs or improvements during the term of the contract without requiring FEMA to remove the improvements at the end of contract;
• A provision incorporating a lease addendum containing FEMA’s conditions of eligibility and termination of tenancy and eviction into any lease between the property owner and the occupant;
• A provision agreeing to waive credit screening for eligible applicants;
• A provision allowing FEMA to re-assign a vacated unit when eligible applicants need temporary housing assistance, and a unit becomes available before the end of the period of assistance;
• Property owners must be current and in good standing with property mortgage payments and ensure mortgage standing verification is provided as well as proof of ownership.

DEFINITIONS

Applicant: An individual or household who has applied for FEMA Assistance, and because of the disaster has a disaster-caused need for temporary housing.

Multi-family Lease and Repair (MLR): MLR allows for the repair or improvement of existing multi-family housing which FEMA can utilize as temporary housing for eligible applicants. MLR is not intended to repair or improve individual units to re-house existing tenants.

Fair Market Rent (FMR): Housing market-wide estimates of rent values in which rental housing units are in competition. The FMR rates applied are those identified by HUD as being adequate for existing rental housing in a particular area. FEMA uses the applicable rate based upon the location of the housing unit, the number of bedrooms in the housing unit, and the fiscal year in which the major disaster declaration was issued.

Fair Housing Act: Protects people from discrimination when they are renting, buying, or securing financing for any housing. The prohibitions specifically cover discrimination because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, and the presence of children.

Unit: A living quarter within a multi-family housing building that provides complete and independent living facilities for one or more persons and contain permanent provisions for living, sleeping, cooking, and sanitation.

Occupant: An applicant, co-applicant, or any household member over the age of 18 who is listed on the Temporary Housing Agreement, as being authorized to reside in the Temporary Housing Unit (THU).

Period of Assistance: Individuals and Households Program (IHP) assistance is limited to 18 months following the date of the disaster declaration. The period of assistance begins at the date of the Presidential declaration and not the date on which the disaster is designated for Individual Assistance (IA). The President may extend the period of assistance due to extraordinary circumstances that an extension would be in public interest. Through the delegation of authority, the Assistant Administrator (AA) for Recovery may, at the request of a state, territorial, and tribal government, extend the period of assistance for the IHP Financial Assistance, Direct Temporary Housing Assistance, or both.

Period of Performance (POP): TBD based on contract award date, 4-month repair period, and the remaining Period of Assistance period.

Reasonable Commuting Distance: A distance which does not place an undue hardship on an applicant. It also takes into consideration the traveling time due to road conditions; e.g., mountainous regions or bridges out and the normal commuting patterns of the area.

Repair: To restore a property or component of the property to a functional condition that will make the property safe and adequate for temporary housing.

Utilities: Services such as water, gas, electricity, heating oil, and/or propane. Utilities do not include amenity services, e.g., cable, television, internet, telephone, etc.
