Teaming arrangements and joint ventures will be considered for any subsequent procurement based on the Government's Market Research. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) insures an average of approximately $40 billion in multifamily rental projects each year. In doing so, it evaluates the market absorption potential for these projects and how they relate to existing projects in the market. HUD has two objectives. One is to avoid financing projects in markets where it is anticipated there will be an excess supply of rental units by the time the project is completed, thereby reducing the risk of default for the proposed project. The other is to avoid increasing vacancy levels above desired levels in the market to reduce the risk to financial viability of existing rental projects, some of whose mortgages HUD may have insured. Most of HUD's multifamily mortgage business is concentrated in metropolitan areas, especially large, fast-growing areas. Detailed information on the location, type, rents, and vacancy rates of existing and newly developed multifamily rental projects is highly valuable in estimating the impacts and potential absorption of rental projects applying for HUD mortgage insurance or subsidy assistance. A limited amount of rental vacancy rate data is available from the Bureau of the Census. This information is collected in greater detail for multifamily rental projects by a limited number of firms that sell it to interested parties in a standardized format. HUD is interested in purchasing such data to assist it in carrying out its market analysis functions. Specific Tasks Projects under this requirement shall will be quite varied in subject matter, magnitude, and complexity as they depend on the nature of complaints received from the public, HUD's priorities and decisions regarding which investigations to initiate, requests for technical assistance from HUD's field offices, and the diverse issues that arise during investigations. Hence, for each project Management and Work Plan (MWP) will be develop in details of the work to be performed. Work Products Prepare interim and other work products consistent with the requirements of each project, which will be submitted to the COR on the dates specified. Draft versions of all reports must be submitted for HUD review, comments, and approval. Oral presentations of findings at HUD headquarters by the Contractor may be requested. 1.
