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.
