Quick Summary

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) for Insurance Verification and Data-Sharing Services for its Individual Assistance (IA) Program. This RFI seeks industry capabilities to validate insurance coverage for disaster survivors and facilitate survivor-permissioned digital data sharing with insurance carriers. Responses are due by March 4, 2026.

Scope of Work

FEMA is seeking information on services and technical solutions that can:

Securely validate survivor insurance coverage for various policy types (homeowners, renters, flood, auto) using survivor-authorized data sharing, ensuring compliance to prevent duplication of benefits.
Enable survivors to authenticate and link their insurance accounts to FEMA's Disaster Assistance Portal (DAP), allowing FEMA to receive verified insurance data directly from insurers.
Integrate with FEMA's IA systems, including the Salesforce-based Individual Assistance Processing System, to support automated checks for duplication of benefits and underinsurance calculations.
Ensure secure handling of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Sensitive PII (SPII), adhering to Federal privacy and security requirements.
