goods and services to State Agencies and Political Subdivisions
in declared state of emergencies. Contractors provide complete
response capabilities for emergency situations such as
hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, man-made and natural
disasters. Capabilities include providing items such as water,
food, generators lighting, toilet facilities, living

contract with the prior approval of SEMO, and shall be solely
