Comprehensive Readiness Solutions and Disaster Response
Preparedness
Responding to an emergency or disaster requires urgency, strategy, and immediate action to gain control of the situation quickly. Many communities have just minutes to take action against the threat they are up against, whether it’s a hurricane, a tropical storm, a flood, or other disaster. Being prepared for these events is an important first step.
Response
Recovery

Select Projects
FEMA – Logistics Housing Operations Unit Installation, Maintenance and Deactivation (LOGHOUSE) Under the substantial $2.7 billion FEMA LOGHOUSE IDIQ contract, MLU has delivered over 82,000 temporary housing units (THUs) nationwide, showcasing our capability and commitment to support in times of need. The LOGHOUSE program has been pivotal in providing shelter to those affected, and our team has managed and executed these large- scale projects successfully.
After the California Camp Fire in 2019, MLU installed a total of 1,500 THUs, including the completion of the 400 mobile home unit (MHUs) Gridley Park Temporary Housing Community in under 80 days. This large-scale project included essential services such as electrical, water/sewer, and trash disposal. Following Hurricane Ida in Louisiana, MLU handled the haul, installation, and maintenance of mobile homes and travel trailers for 2,500 displaced families across 24 counties.
Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) – Crisis Leadership Team Exercise Tidal Basin created a hybrid tabletop exercise workshop broken out into three modules to distribute information in a way that made sense to the overarching needs of LAWA. We proposed a solution incorporating all components of emergency preparedness – including community leaders, LAWA staff and leadership, and government partners and facilities – to ensure the information was received correctly and any issues related to multiple threats/hazards were addressed. Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) – COVID-19 Pandemic Disaster Response and Recovery Services IEMA sought an experienced firm to assist state and local jurisdictions with the administration of the state’s COVID-19 recovery program. Tidal Basin was selected and supported numerous Treasury and FEMA funded recovery program initiatives on behalf of the State of Illinois and its subrecipients. We also supported the project closeout for state and local entities, as well as private non-profit organizations. FEMA – Housing Inspections Services (HIS) Through our joint venture Vanguard Inspection Services, Tidal Basin has been serving FEMA since 2013 with post-disaster emergency housing inspection services nationwide. Our team is responsible for deploying a large, trained cadre of inspectors to assess and report on housing damage to support disaster survivors. We have achieved significant readiness, adjudication, and response outcomes, demonstrating excellence in managing the HIS contract.
Noteworthy achievements include developing comprehensive training for inspectors, conducting over 1.5 million housing inspections—particularly during the 2017-2018 hurricane seasons—and leveraging technology to enhance data accuracy and expedite aid delivery. Our team’s effective response strategies to large-scale emergencies in states like Texas, California, Florida, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands highlight our continuing critical contribution to FEMA’s disaster response efforts.
