SEATTLE, April 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Mobile emergency response and event logistics company Ellipse Global will supply government and military agencies with full-service mobile base camps to support field operations, per a newly awarded contract by the General Services Administration (GSA). The pact, which runs through 2022, enables agencies at the federal, state and local level to engage Ellipse, through its contract subsidiary company Incident Catering Services, Inc., for emergency deployments as well as field training.
Ellipse will establish and maintain base camps, coordinate logistics, operations, food, showers, laundries, restrooms, and ancillary support services under terms of the GSA agreement. Support also includes maintenance and supplies.
Employing Incident Command System (ICS) – trained personnel, Ellipse Global utilizes the same standardized management tools and systems that government-sponsored agencies rely upon. The system ensures more effective and efficient coordination between public and private response teams in responding to natural disasters, acts of terrorism, as well as planned events. ICS best practices are widely recognized as the industry standard across the emergency and event management spectrum.
The official GSA contractor designation for Ellipse Global streamlines the procurement process for state and local jurisdictions managing emergency response. Officials can easily and confidently access the company’s facilities, equipment, personnel, procedures, and communications, knowing all have undergone the rigorous GSA review process.
Backed by 45 years of mobile and disaster relief experience through its operating subsidiaries, Ellipse Global companies serve federal, state and local jurisdictions, managing emergency response or incidents and events require immediate action throughout the United States. Among them: the U.S. Forest Service, the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), as well as state agencies in Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi, Texas and Washington.
Ellipse Global CEO Stephen Humphreys said, “Our partnership with the public sector transcends base camps, equipment and logistics operations. It’s about people – the brave men and women whose compassion for communities in need saves lives, property and a way of life. It’s an honor to work alongside them and I am grateful that the GSA has provided us with the framework to continue that tradition of service.”
