The best way to fill the gap being left After FEMA is for your community to use smart, proven, efficient, cost-effective technologies.
SpotOnResponse does just what you need:
Coordinate in Advance
Communicate during Events
Cooperate to Rebuild
Our Business-Community Partnership gives you SpotOnResponse on 100 of your mobile or web devices operating on a secure cloud for $1,000 a year.
It's all paid for by local businesses.
For years we've been delivering better and better versions of SpotOnResponse for major projects across the country. So it is proven. Innovative. Customizable. And paid for.
Now we want to "pay-it-forward" by offering this low-cost package, SpotOnResponse on 100 of your mobile or web devices for $1,000 a year. We put our money where our mouth is when we say replacing FEMA takes the Whole Community - and the right tool.
So we created the Business-Community Partnership. A business or community organization pays the annual subscription and 100 others get on the network to build revolutionary new capabilities to protect your community from disaster and restore faster after an event.
The process is simple. The purchaser designates the administrator, usually the local emergency management agency, but it can be anyone.
Then the community takes over distributing the app, conducting mini-exercises on your phones to practice and add community data without burdening anyone. It is all spelled out in our "After FEMA Playbook."
But what does SpotOnResponse actually do for you?
For starters, you will Coordinate, Communicate, Cooperate - the essential functions of emergency management - using SpotOnResponse to build your Community Resilience Team and be better After FEMA.
