Turn your wildfire risk into mitigation funding.
Communities spend far more recovering from fires than preventing them. PRECEDE helps you close that gap — we produce the fundable FEMA Benefit-Cost Analysis from our data, the hardest part of a mitigation grant, so you can move dollars from recovery to mitigation.
The problem
The money is heavily weighted toward response and recovery — after the fire, when the homes are already gone. Mitigation funding exists to flip that, but it is hard to capture. Every FEMA mitigation grant requires a Benefit-Cost Analysis proving the project returns more than it costs, and that analysis is the most data-hungry, most stalled-on part of the whole application.
What we do
PRECEDE quantifies wildfire risk and avoided loss across fine-grained locations — exactly the evidence a Benefit-Cost Analysis is built from. We turn that into a fundable, FEMA-compliant BCA for your project, and can help assemble the surrounding mitigation-grant package. You get the hardest part of the application done, backed by forward-tested risk data.
How agencies buy it
We built the entry point to be fast. The grant-readiness service is priced and packaged to skip the friction that usually slows government purchasing.
Under your purchase-card limit
The grant-readiness service is a fixed fee that typically falls under the federal micro-purchase threshold. A card-holder can buy it directly — no new budget line to defend.
No RFP
Because it sits under the threshold, there is no competitive-bid requirement. You skip the procurement cycle that stalls most fast-moving mitigation work.
Often grant-eligible
When the service is sourced and timed correctly, the fee itself can be an eligible grant cost. We charge a flat fee for the work, never a percentage of any award.
Programs we target
HMGP Post-Fire
The wildfire workhorse. Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Post-Fire funding is wildfire-specific and flows after fire declarations — the most reliable near-term lane for fire-exposed communities. This is where we start.
BRIC
Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities funds bigger-ticket mitigation. It runs through your state hazard-mitigation office on the state's own deadlines, so we treat it as a be-ready, larger lane rather than the first move.
