We provided expertise in the FEMA Public Assistance Program, specifically, Debris (Category A) Operations and Emergency Protective Measures (Category B).
The compliance team worked to identify all emergency response activities performed by various precincts and departments and collected documentation to support their claims. The documentation included all force account labor records, materials and supplies. Our method and approach accounted for a claim for over $45,000,000 in Debris operations and over $20,000,000 in Emergency Protective Measures.

Deliverables

Within 3 days of the torrential rain and resulting flooding in parts of South Carolina, Landmark Consulting mobilized an emergency management team and hit the ground running. The team consisted of experienced professionals specializing in disaster assessments, municipal administration, governmental relations, engineering, architecture, and Federal policy including Public Assistance, Hazard Mitigation and Community Development Block Grants. Working side by side with the City of Columbia’s staff, Landmark’s Program Management team is responsible for design and construction phases, cash flow analysis and tracking of Direct Administrative Costs for reimbursement. Landmark’s Compliance Assurance Program team ensures that proper guidelines and procedures for procurement, cost alignment, scope of work, reimbursement, documentation submittal and retention, and project closeout are met, both timely and efficiently, while strictly adhering to Federal Requirements under the Stafford Act. The team performed assessments of storm damaged facilities which resulted in an estimated project funding amount of $90 million. Project Worksheets are currently being formulated to capture the damages and estimates to obligate Public Assistance and 404 Hazard Mitigation and 406 Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funding. An Expedited Emergency PW that was formulated, obligated, and advanced in the amount of $7.6 million, was recognized by South Carolina state officials as being one of the largest and most organized projects submitted for funding. Additionally, a Direct Allocation Request was submitted to HUD and granted to the City of Columbia for $19.8 million for CDBG-DR funding.

Landmark is providing support to the City through schedule and cost management support including risk management and project delivery process improvements. This is accomplished by an analysis of data required to plan and manage project schedules and budgets. The overarching goal of project controls is to deliver projects on-time and on-budget. Our team controls the schedule by regularly updating and re-planning to adapt to changes. We assist with development of accurate cost estimates, monitoring project cost, and improve and standardize business processes.
