Serco‘s North American subsidiary has secured a spot on a potential five-year, $600 million contract to support disaster recovery and emergency response missions of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
The company said Tuesday Serco Inc. will hire and deploy personnel as part of the Public Assistance Technical Assistance Contract IV contract to help states, local agencies, tribes and other organizations respond to and recover from a critical situation through FEMA’s Public Assistance Program.
