1) It does not state how long the data scientist would be required for ie months, years etc 2) Is pricing expected as a per hour rate or daily rate? 3) Is this an RFI or RFQ? 4) Is a resume meant to be provided?

Would the government clarify if this is a request for information (RFI) or if this is a synopsis and solicitation. • If this is an RFI, does the government intend to use a reverse auction to procure professional services? • If the government is utilizing a reverse auction for professional services, how does the government plan to evaluate specific expertise, capabilities, or requirements of the staff proposed to perform the professional services being requested. • What is the projected Period of Performance for this work? • The solicitation is titled “Equity Data Scientist” but the Scope of Work outlines deliverables that could be accomplished by a team. Is FEMA requesting the unit price of one Equity Data Scientist to support FEMA in meeting these goals and objectives or a team of contracted staff to facilitate the goals and objectives listed in the SOW?
