Award of EDA DR-4715 Guam Mission: NOVACES Announces Award with the Economic Development Administration for Disaster Recovery Services.

September 21, 2023

NOVACES, a leading management consulting firm that provides disaster response and recovery services, announced today that it has been awarded a task order to respond to destruction on the Island of Guam due to Typhoon Mawar, under its Blanket Purchase Agreement for Disaster Recovery services to the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration. Under this task order, NOVACES will engage in comprehensive recovery and support operations, including conducting a Recovery Needs Assessment, deploying economic development expertise, developing recovery support and strategies, and documenting technical assistance options and recovery actions that can be taken by officials of the Territory of Guam. This mission aligns with NOVACES’ expertise in disaster recovery and economic development, underlining our commitment to making a significant impact in disaster-stricken areas.

This work follows on similar efforts NOVACES led under a predecessor BPA in Puerto Rico. NOVACES contributed to economic recovery initiatives on the Island for over 5 years in the aftermath of the 2017 Hurricanes Maria and Irma. As recent disasters across the U.S. continue to reach unprecedented levels of scale and impact, NOVACES is delivering a more structured and proactive approach to preparedness and response management. Our solutions are designed to accelerate recovery and strengthen long-term resilience and readiness for future events.
