Storm Readiness · for infrastructure & operations teams

Know which assets are most at risk, before the storm arrives.

Storm Readiness turns a severe-weather forecast into a ranked view of asset risk, service impact and staging decisions, so operations teams can pre-position crews and materials with a clear reason for every call.

The problem

Forecasts describe the weather. Operations needs to know what it will do to assets and services.

Weather data is everywhere. A staging decision is not.

Ahead of a storm, teams stitch together forecast maps, radar, asset records and experience to decide where to send crews. It is slow, hard to explain after the fact, and it rarely says how confident anyone should be.

  • Forecasts are not impact. Wind and rain fields do not say which assets, sites and people are exposed.
  • Uncertainty is hidden. A single forecast hides the worse-case scenario that staging should plan for.
  • Decisions are hard to defend. After the event, it is difficult to reconstruct what was known, when, and why crews were placed where they were.

Business value

Earlier, clearer, defensible storm decisions.

Stage ahead of impact

Ranked asset risk and a peak-hour view up to 48 hours out, so staging starts early instead of in a scramble.

Plan for the bad case

Switch between expected and worse-case scenarios and see how the storm footprint, ranking and staging change.

A record you can stand behind

Event replay and exports show what the board knew at each hour, with sources and timestamps, for after-action and regulatory review.

How it works

One chain, from weather to action.

Every number on the board traces back through the same decision chain, and every step carries its source.

  1. Weather

    High-resolution forecast, radar and surface observations.

  2. Hazard

    Wind, rain and convective intensity over your area of operations.

  3. Exposure

    Which assets and sites sit in the storm footprint.

  4. Vulnerability

    How susceptible each asset is to that hazard.

  5. Disruption risk

    A bounded probability of failure per asset, with its drivers.

  6. Consequence

    People and services affected, and the peak-impact window.

  7. Action

    Staging, recovery outlook, alerts and playbook steps.

Who gains, and how

Preparedness leads

One shared picture of where risk concentrates and how it shifts with lead time and scenario.

Operations & dispatch

Staging tied to specific assets and a peak-impact window, not a regional guess.

Recovery planning

An early view of services at risk and the recovery outlook, updated as observations arrive.

Leadership & regulatory

Every event replayable, with the sources and timestamps behind each decision.
