Request for Information (RFI) - Drinking Water

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to collect market data on industry capabilities for providing disaster‑relief drinking water across the United States and overseas locations. This market research will inform future contingency planning, requirements development, and potential IDIQ contract award for water supply services. Vendors are asked to detail their product offerings, production capacity, delivery timelines, logistics assets, and any existing FEMA contracts or pre‑positioned inventory. The response must be submitted electronically by the specified deadline and must not contain promotional content. • Describe all water packaging types you can provide (bottled, extended‑shelf‑life, canned, etc.). • Provide quantitative delivery capabilities for the first 24 hours, days 2‑14, and sustained rates thereafter, expressed in liters. • Explain OCONUS (outside the continental U.S.) support, including locations, timelines, and any restrictions. • Outline company size, existing FEMA contracts, ramp‑up time, vendor‑managed inventory locations, and transportation assets (owned and contracted). • Identify any proprietary information and address potential conflicts of interest.
