Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) Risk Assessment & Mitigation

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE) for Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) Risk Assessment & Mitigation for the Fire Service. The project will provide students with the opportunity to attend the SFPE premier training Program and support three (3) 1-day course deliveries and seven (7) 2-day course deliveries in the field for fire departments to learn to use the SFPE WUI tool and apply learning in their jurisdictions. • The SFPE uniquely developed software for wildfire risk assessment with high tech systems for determining mitigation strategies. • The project will teach learners to use a virtual handbook of engineering-based resource materials to support fire department WUI property fire risk assessments and recommended mitigation strategies for use in the field. • The acquisition is being conducted under simplified acquisition procedures.
