Emergency Response | Disaster Recovery | Resilience | Geospatial Technology Solutions

Our team includes many of the most recognized and respected disaster experts and thought leaders nationwide specializing in Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) policy, personnel training and development, planning and preparedness activities, disaster response and assessments, community recovery operations, debris management and removal operations, and hazard mitigation services. Our disaster cadre responds to FEMA’s surge capacity needs. We provide the right people with the right experience to each task assignment, crafting our solution specifically to our clients’ needs. 

Resilience is the ability of a community to maintain its functions in the face of dramatically changed circumstances, including climate change, natural disasters, and aging infrastructure. Recent experiences of governments, businesses, and communities are driving an emerging recognition of the cost of inaction. Achieving a reasonable measure of resilience is a critical goal for organizations and communities, involving careful assessment, planning, and implementation, as well as the ability to evolve, adapt, and thrive as vulnerabilities shift. High-visibility investments in strengthening infrastructure require sound planning  and prioritization. We maximize resilience by minimizing risks. We offer a customized framework that gives our clients the tools, services, and specialized expertise they need as they work toward resilience. We start by listening to our clients’ needs to develop the right framework for their operations. Our tools are designed to facilitate assessment and planning, and are tailored so that appropriate documentation and analysis takes place in order to meet emergency funding criteria as may be needed in the future.

We use technology to aid recovery after a disaster. For four decades, we have been using technology to help communities prepare for and recover from disasters. Emergency management is a fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment, where decision-makers need accurate and reliable data, quickly. Lives depend on it. Our solutions help decision-makers collect, analyze, and communicate critical data. Our developers design applications for mobile, web, and desktop for federal, state, local, and commercial clients. We listen to understand client goals, work in collaboration and conceptualize alternatives, design and build a solution, and then implement plans within our clients’ organizational guidelines. We create right-sized solutions that work with our clients’ needs and systems.
