🔍 Why Wasn't I Called?
Enter your 3-digit ZIP code and optionally a resource type. See the awards that happened near you and what categories you could have competed for.
🎯 How Awards Are Actually Decided
The decision framework for every EERA award under FAR Part 18 emergency acquisitions. No rotation. No preferred vendor list. No guaranteed work.
1
Closest Capable
Geographic proximity from your stated mobilization point. This is why your ZIP3 location on the SRL matters.
2
Time Critical
Can you meet the date and time needed? Most EERAs require resources within 24–48 hours of the call.
3
Full Requirement
Your resource and operator must meet every equipment, PPE, and certification requirement on the EERA.
4
Fair & Reasonable
Price is compared against five years of historical rates by geographic area. Lowest price is not the sole decider.
Best Value = Speed + Capability + Readiness, within Fair & Reasonable Pricing
