Educating public and private sector stakeholders is at the heart of the All Hazards Consortium’s mission. To meet the growing demand for regional information sharing, the AHC curates a dynamic “regional repository of information” focused on high-priority topics. These timely reports and white papers—created by the AHC, its Working Groups, and trusted partners—are not just documents; they’re actionable planning tools designed to equip decision-makers with the insights they need to prepare, respond, and lead with confidence.

New Report: August 2024

The SISE-net Performance Report for Hurricane DEBBY


Emerging Capabilities in the Private Sector's SISE for Cross-Sector Information Sharing

During Hurricane DEBBY, the SISE (Sensitive Information Sharing Environment) community effectively leveraged new technology to gather real-time operational information from both state agencies and the private sector.
 
The integration of this information into the SISE-net Hub provided unprecedented situational awareness, enabling faster and more informed decision-making across all involved sectors.
 
Key highlights from the report include:

  • Enhanced Situational Awareness: The SISE-net Hub allowed for the seamless and instant sharing of critical information, reducing the reliance on traditional communication methods like email, which can often slow down response efforts. Metrics are provided inside the report
  • Improved Coordination: The ability to quickly access and share accurate information and data significantly strengthened our cross-sector community ties and improved our collective response efforts across multiple states and regions..
  • Effective Use of the SIGNAL App: The SIGNAL app played a pivotal role in ensuring that real-time, encrypted, FOIA protected  information was at the fingertips of decision-makers, enhancing our ability to respond swiftly and effectively to emerging challenges.
 
The success we experienced during Hurricane DEBBY underscores the importance of our ongoing efforts to innovate and refine our tools and processes.
 
We are grateful for the dedication and hard work of everyone involved, and we look forward to building on these achievements as we continue to enhance our capabilities.

Enhancing Community Resilience with The Green Power On-Demand System (GPODS)

The GPODS (Green Power On-Demand System) initiative focuses on deploying mobile, rechargeable, energy storage units (battery) connected to the utility distribution grid. These units can support the community’s grid resilience year-round and be deployed during disasters to pre-determined critical locations, ensuring uninterrupted power supply.

This white paper outlines the problem, describes the GPODS solution, highlights the collaborative effort driving the project, provides a status update, and emphasizes the resources provided by the All Hazards Consortium (AHC), the participating utility, and other project partners.
