The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency has asked companies to re-submit bids to oversee the Hurricane Katrina cottages pilot program….
MEMA officials said it has nothing to do with PBS&J’s performance. The agency wants to “get the lowest bid from the best qualified contractor,” officials wrote in an e-mailed response from The Clarion-Ledger newspaper.
The state did not use a competitive bid process when it selected PBS&J. Officials said they needed to move forward with the cottage program as soon as possible, and the firm was working on other recovery projects when it was chosen.
