EMERGENCY CONTRACTS • During Emergency situations, getting contracts in place to assist in the recovery is time critical. • Normal contracting procedures will not work. • The Corps utilizes existing POCA contracts at the local level, and Headquarters utilizes the Advance Contracts Initiatives (Multi-year contracts). • Stafford Act includes a “local preference” provision which requires preference must be given when feasible and practical to local firms. ( Ex. During the 2011 Alabama Housing Mission the contract requirements included the use of In-State 8A Contractors )
