Critical Infrastructure Resilience

The All Hazards Consortium (AHC) is a network of organizations and individuals who work together to improve the capacity of a region to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. During a natural disaster, the AHC can impact critical infrastructure in several ways:

Planning and preparedness: The AHC can help organizations develop plans and strategies to protect critical infrastructure before a disaster strikes. This includes identifying vulnerable areas, developing contingency plans, and ensuring that necessary resources are in place.
Coordination and communication: During a disaster, the AHC can help coordinate the efforts of different organizations and agencies, and facilitate communication among them. This can ensure that critical infrastructure is protected and restored in a coordinated and efficient manner.
Response and recovery: The AHC can provide support and resources to help organizations respond to and recover from a disaster. This can include providing equipment and personnel, coordinating logistics, and assisting with damage assessment and repair.

Overall, the AHC plays a critical role in helping to protect and restore critical infrastructure during a natural disaster, and in ensuring that the region is able to recover and return to normal operations as quickly as possible.

The AHC can impact critical infrastructure during a natural disaster:

Identifying vulnerabilities: The AHC can help organizations identify vulnerabilities in their critical infrastructure, and develop plans to address these vulnerabilities. This can include identifying the most likely types of disasters that could occur in the region, and assessing the potential impact on critical infrastructure.
Developing contingency plans: The AHC can help organizations develop contingency plans to protect critical infrastructure in the event of a disaster. This can include identifying alternative sources of power, developing evacuation plans, and establishing backup communication systems.
Providing resources: The AHC can identify and coordinate resources and assistance to help organizations protect and restore critical infrastructure during and after a disaster. This can include providing equipment and personnel, coordinating logistics, and assisting with damage assessment and repair.
Coordinating efforts: The AHC can help coordinate the efforts of different organizations and agencies, and facilitate communication among them. This can ensure that critical infrastructure is protected and restored in a coordinated and efficient manner.

Disaster Management

Introducing a collaborative approach for the industry to partner with state and federal governments in preparing for, responding to, and recovering from any kind of regional incident, disaster, accident, or disruption. This involves jointly creating a centralized hub for compiling information on disasters or crisis responses, aimed at aligning situational awareness and decision-making processes between states and industries. The outcome is a quicker restoration of businesses and communities to normal operations after disruptions.

Sensitive Information Sharing

A new private sector operated "trusted" environment for sharing sensitive information w/government

Enables "data-driven decision making" to effectively manage disruptions
