Enhancing Situational Awareness During National Preparedness Month

As we recognize National Preparedness Month, the importance of situational awareness in disaster response is at the forefront of our minds at BES. In the face of natural disasters, such as wildfires, hurricanes, or floods, having a clear, comprehensive, and real-time understanding of the operating environment is crucial for making informed decisions and ensuring an effective response and rapid recovery from disasters.

Situational awareness is not just about gathering, processing, and analyzing information. It empowers emergency managers to understand their current environment, anticipate future events, and make data-driven decisions for the betterment of their community. With the right tools and data at their fingertips, they can respond quickly and effectively to any crisis. However, those tools must be properly aligned with workflows, procedures, and personnel to ensure they are leveraged to their utmost capabilities.
