Department of Commerce (DOC), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland is the lead National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) agency and has the primary responsibility for NEHRP planning and coordination. NIST conducts applied earthquake engineering research to provide the technical basis for building codes, standards, and practices, and is responsible for working with the U. S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and others to implement improved earthquake-resistant design guidance for building codes and standards for new and existing buildings, structures, and lifelines. Public Law 108-360 assigns NIST significant new R&D responsibilities to close the research-to-implementation gap and accelerate the use of new earthquake risk mitigation technologies based on the earth sciences and engineering knowledge developed through NEHRP efforts. NEHRP intends to strengthen program effectiveness by facilitating implementation of earthquake risk mitigation measures, and build and maintain effective partnerships with NEHRP program agencies and stakeholders in industry, academia and government. So that NIST may support NEHRP in the duties noted above, NIST seeks information from industry sources with CURRENT, RELEVANT EXPERIENCE and CURRENT, RELEVANT EXPERTISE IN THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM INTEGRATION AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT AREAS so that NIST can determine an appropriate acquisition strategy to satisfy its upcoming requirements: Emergency management, mitigation, and disaster reduction issues; Supporting agency Secretariat-level requirements; Coordinating interagency program support with the Executive Office of the President of the United States, Subcommittee on Disaster Reduction; Knowledge of experts and stakeholders in disaster reduction; Supporting coordination of interagency budgets; Coordinating multiple agency and committee document reviews; Dealings with NEHRP; Facilitating high-level interagency meetings; and Gathering information, writing, editing, and graphically designing management, strategic planning, and annual reports for senior level management in the Federal government.
