This solicitation seeks a contractor to provide rapid, on‑site damage assessments of traffic‑control devices (signs, barricades, portable signals, etc.) following a disaster or emergency event. The contractor must be able to mobilize at least ten two‑person assessment teams within 24 hours of activation and begin assessments within 48 hours.
