Although urgent and emergency response services will apply only when expressly required by an authorized call order or written Contracting Officer direction, the capability to support such response is a material requirement for establishing the BPA.</p>\n\n<p>Urgent or emergency asbestos requirements may arise from potential asbestos disturbance, containment failure, suspected fiber migration, occupied-facility impacts, access restrictions, health or safety concerns, indoor-air-quality concerns, environmental concerns, or mission continuity impacts.</p>\n\n<p>Because asbestos-related conditions can present safety, regulatory, environmental, and operational concerns, the Government requires a contractor that can promptly mobilize qualified personnel, supervision, equipment, containment materials, HEPA filtration, negative air controls, PPE, waste packaging materials, and other required resources to the Denton, Texas facility. Delayed response could increase risk to building occupants, disrupt FEMA operations, delay facility repairs, complicate regulatory compliance, or increase the scope and cost of corrective work.</p>\n\n<p>Based on current market research and currently available information, FEMA has identified RNDI Companies, Inc. as the only WOSB source known to the Government that appears capable of satisfying the Government&rsquo;s combined requirements for:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Performance of regulated asbestos abatement work in Texas;</li>\n\t<li>Current asbestos abatement contractor capability;</li>\n\t<li>Licensed asbestos supervisors and workers;</li>\n\t<li>Local DFW/North Texas mobilization capability;</li>\n\t<li>Ability to support site assessment and field verification requirements at the FEMA Denton facility;</li>\n\t<li>Ability to support recurring, planned, urgent, and optional emergency asbestos abatement requirements under a BPA call-order structure;</li>\n\t<li>Capability to perform containment, critical barriers, negative air filtration, HEPA vacuuming, decontamination, final cleaning, and clearance support;</li>\n\t<li>Capability to package, label, manifest, transport, and dispose of asbestos-containing waste at authorized facilities;</li>\n\t<li>Experience performing asbestos abatement, environmental remediation, hazardous waste transportation, hazardous waste disposal, and related services for government, commercial, institutional, and private-sector customers; and</li>\n\t<li>Ability to perform work in occupied or partially occupied facilities while minimizing disruption to facility operations.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>RNDI attended the market research site visit and had the opportunity to observe the facility, access constraints, staging limitations, occupied-facility considerations, and response requirements. Site-visit attendance was considered as one element of market research and was not the sole basis for the intended sole-source determination.</p>\n\n<p>RNDI Companies, Inc. represents that it is a woman-owned small business and holds various state, local, and third-party socioeconomic certifications. RNDI&rsquo;s statement of qualifications represents that the firm maintains asbestos abatement contractor, asbestos transporter, TCEQ, lead firm, mold remediation, bonding, insurance, and related environmental remediation capabilities. FEMA will verify required licenses, registrations, insurance, responsibility, and WOSB eligibility prior to award.</p>\n\n<p>RNDI&rsquo;s statement of qualifications identifies experience providing asbestos abatement, hazardous waste transportation, hazardous waste disposal, lead and lead paint remediation, mold remediation, structural demolition, disaster recovery, wastewater removal, property restoration, and air and water pollution remediation services throughout Texas. RNDI also identifies experience with governmental, transportation, educational, institutional, commercial, and other public-sector customers in the Dallas-Fort Worth and broader Texas markets.</p>\n\n<p>The Government will evaluate any resulting proposal to determine whether RNDI is responsible, whether the technical proposal is acceptable, whether regulatory compliance, licensing, and safety requirements are satisfied, whether past performance provides an acceptable expectation of successful performance, and whether the proposed prices are fair and reasonable.</p>\n\n<p>This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and does not constitute a solicitation. However, any responsible source that believes it can meet the Government&rsquo;s requirement may submit a written capability statement for FEMA&rsquo;s consideration.</p>\n\n<p>Capability statements must include sufficient information for FEMA to determine whether the respondent can meet the requirement without unacceptable delay, safety risk, regulatory risk, or operational disruption. General statements of interest or general corporate capability are not sufficient.</p>\n\n<p>At a minimum, capability statements should address:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Current Texas asbestos contractor licensing and applicable regulatory credentials;</li>\n\t<li>Availability of licensed asbestos supervisors and workers;</li>\n\t<li>Ability to mobilize qualified personnel, supervision, equipment, containment materials, HEPA filtration equipment, negative air machines, PPE, waste packaging materials, and related resources to 800 N. Loop 288, Denton, Texas 76209 within the required urgent and emergency response timeframes;</li>\n\t<li>Experience performing asbestos abatement in occupied or partially occupied facilities;</li>\n\t<li>Experience with floor tile, mastic, transite panels, insulation, or similar asbestos-containing materials;</li>\n\t<li>Ability to package, label, manifest, transport, and dispose of asbestos-containing waste at authorized facilities;</li>\n\t<li>Regulatory notification procedures and experience complying with applicable Texas asbestos requirements;</li>\n\t<li>Health and Safety Plan and Activity Hazard Analysis procedures;</li>\n\t<li>Quality control program and corrective action process;</li>\n\t<li>Ability to comply with applicable FEMA facility access, security, information protection, badging, training, and documentation requirements;</li>\n\t<li>Ability to perform under a BPA/call-order structure with recurring, planned, urgent, overlapping, or emergency requirements;</li>\n\t<li>Active registration in the System for Award Management;</li>\n\t<li>Verification of applicable small business and WOSB status; and</li>\n\t<li>At least three recent and relevant past performance references completed or performed within the past five years.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Past performance references should include the customer name, contract or project title, contract number if applicable, period of performance, dollar value, description of work performed, type and quantity of asbestos-containing materials abated if available, whether work occurred in an occupied or partially occupied facility, whether the project involved regulated waste transportation and disposal, whether the work involved urgent, recurring, BPA, IDIQ, or task-order-type requirements, and customer contact information.</p>\n\n<p>Responses must be submitted electronically to:</p>\n\n<p>Destiny Dyson<br />\nContracting Officer<br />\nDestiny.Dyson@fema.dhs.gov</p>\n\n<p>The subject line should state:</p>\n\n<p>Capability Statement, 70FBR626R00000018, Asbestos Abatement BPA</p>\n\n<p>Responses must be received no later than September 30, 2026, 11:00 AM Central Time, unless otherwise amended by the Government.</p>\n\n<p>Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
