Federal

Disaster Recovery & FEMA Public Assistance

Recovery support from a firm that builds.

We help public agencies, nonprofits and recovery firms develop eligible scopes, estimate and validate costs, stay compliant and move projects through closeout. Because we build, we understand how recovery projects are actually scoped, priced, procured and constructed.

01

FEMA Public Assistance

Project formulation, documentation and management from damage to closeout.

02

Damage assessments and scope development

Field-driven scopes that hold up under federal review.

03

Cost estimating and cost reasonableness

RSMeans and market-based estimates, plus independent review of contractor pricing.

04

Procurement and contract compliance

2 CFR 200 procurement support and contract-file review.

05

Hazard mitigation

Section 406 mitigation proposals, cost estimates and benefit-cost support.

06

Teaming and subcontract support

A technical resource for engineering firms, recovery primes and program managers.
