FEMA Is Going Away. Here's How Your Business Can Prepare Your Community — and Protect Yourself.

AI generated image

Without FEMA’s training, planning tools, exercises, research, staffing, CERT support — and of course, funding — the burden of disaster readiness now falls squarely on your community.

The federal safety net is gone.  To protect your business in a disaster, now is the time to step up to support local community emergency management. 

If You Let the Community Go It Alone in a Disaster, Your Business Risks:

🧩 Fragmented Response Increases Your Damage
Agencies, businesses, and nonprofits operate in silos. Recovery coordination becomes chaos.

Slow Decision-Making Delays Your Reopening
Small budgets and long approval chains delay action when speed is everything.

💸 No Emergency Fund to Prevents Your Rebuilding
Most governments lack a federal-style rainy-day fund. Bond issues take time they don’t have.

📉 Outdated Tools Keep You in the Dark
Government has not innovated with technology like business has. You will know less than you expect at exactly the time when you need the right information. 

​​

There’s a Better Way: Sponsor the Business-Community Partnership

To avoid disaster confusion and breakdown, your local government must replace FEMA capabilities with innovation. Solid, simple, cost-effective technology lets your entire community become part of the Community Resilience Team.

SpotOnResponse makes it possible for governments, businesses, and community leaders to act as one team, before, during, and after disaster.

 

And you can make that happen when you sponsor the SpotOnResponse Business-Community Partnership.

A Revolutionary Way to Fill the FEMA Gap ... SpotOnResponse Business-Community Partnership

AI generated image

When you sponsor SpotOnResponse, you’re not just helping a government agency — you’re equipping the entire community to work together.

 

Here’s how it works:


A local business, nonprofit, or civic group sponsors SpotOnResponse for the community. That subscription unlocks 100 user licenses distributed by the administrator, usually the emergency manager, across local government, businesses, community associations, schools, and any other partner.

 

What You Get for $1,000/Year

​✔️ SpotOnResponse licenses for 100 local users
✔️ Full access to a secure, scalable, proven platform
✔️ Tools for planning, response, communication, and recovery
✔️ Mobile + web apps, backed by experienced emergency professionals
✔️ No procurement delays. No grant cycle waits. Just readiness.

✔️ No bureaucracy. No red tape. Just action.

 

Why Is It So Affordable? And Is It for Real?

Let’s address the obvious:


In a world where government software often starts at $50,000 and takes months to deploy, $10/user/year might sound… too good to be true.

Here’s why it’s not:

This isn’t a startup. SpotOnResponse was developed to support numerous federal and state projects in emergency management. Version after version was improved and proven in the field.

Most importantly, it was paid for through these other projects. So this is our time - in these very dangerous times for our profession - to "pay it forward."

This isn’t a stripped-down app. This is a platform purpose-built for public safety, offered at a price that reflects the mission, not the profit margin.

SpotOnResponse is not a freemium tool. Something with a bunch of "in app" purchases. No.


It’s a secure, cloud-based platform designed specifically for community-scale emergency coordination with real-time planning, personnel and vehicle tracking, communications, mobile drills, ArcGIS data integration, and recovery tools built-in.

The pricing isn’t a gimmick. It’s part of a deliberate partnership strategy to accelerate adoption. We believe that widespread distribution throughout the Whole Community is essential to change the face of emergency management.

​​​

You get everything that commercial customers have paid 3-5X the amount. If you can put the app into the hands of the Whole Community you will fill the gap left by FEMA and we will all be safer. That is worth it to us. And should be to you, too.
