In episode 144 of the PreparedEx podcast, we delve into the critical role of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) in disaster response, focusing on the recent experiences during Hurricane Helene. FEMA’s push for PPP over the past several years has laid the groundwork, but it’s during real-world events that the actual value of these partnerships becomes evident. We’ll explore how the North Carolina Business Emergency Operations Center (BEOC) has been instrumental in coordinating efforts between the State Emergency Response Team and businesses. From daily briefings on critical infrastructure to facilitating vendor reentry and managing donations, this episode highlights the essential lessons learned and the responsibilities companies must uphold to ensure effective disaster response.
