Topic:  The Disaster Recovery:  What Clients Wish They Knew from the Beginning

ABSTRACT

As a premier architecture and program management firm, Landmark Consulting specializes in disaster recovery assistance and compliance.  Landmark’s compliance program has been proven to successfully set a standard of an outstanding performance history of managing disaster recovery programs for municipal agencies, educational institutions and private non-profits that frequently use government funds to finance infrastructure projects, reconcile and reverse insurance proceeds. We have worked to improve our tools and processes with every new client over the last 11 years. Our experience tells us that a consistent, process driven plan is the key to success. Our implementation plan includes several components, starting with damage assessment and scope development. Our team of consultants and industry leading professionals has experience with applying for, administering and program managing the following federal programs.  Landmark Consulting has combined its technical knowledge base of large scale building programs and disaster funding requirements with the client’s need to recover quickly and developed a solution called the Compliance Assurance Program (CAP) (copyright pending).  We have the unique distinction of working on the Hurricane Katrina recovery over the last 10 years from the perspective as the funding agency, program management consultants and the applicant’s advocate from evacuation to close-out of a catastrophic hurricane event.  Our experience has taught us clients wish that they knew specific information before a disaster occurs because recovery work is not just about the bottom line, it’s about the community.  At Landmark Consulting, we deliver more than projects, we help build communities.
