Direct Access to Incident Information

How do you get your information from public entities in emergencies?

EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER LIAISON

NPP places trained volunteer private-sector liaisons at State and local Emergency Operations Centers (EOC) in order to improve coordination and flow of information between the public and private sectors during disasters. At the EOC, decisions are made on prioritizing safety missions, protecting key infrastructure, and allocating resources. By working and building trust with key government agency partners, participating businesses benefit from improved situational awareness and can facilitate key resource requests during an actual emergency. Accurate, relevant, and validated timely information is often difficult to obtain during a disaster.

Exercise Your Plan

What if you could participate in local exercises?

Whether NPP is directing a tabletop exercise or has awareness of others in the community conducting an exercise, awareness of these opportunities are valuable to help exercise your continuity plans.

Training & Mentoring to Small and Medium Sized Businesses

How are you keeping up with the latest in emergency preparedness?

NPP can provide training, webinars, mentoring, and documents to help you develop a comprehensive continuity program. 

Resource Directory

NPP serves as a consortium of information including development of a Business Resource Directory. This directory provides a list of assets, equipment, and services that may be available to the community to get back into operation following a disaster. The Business Resource Directory allows the business community to contribute in a cost-effective and leveraged way to recovery, which reduces the impact of emergencies in Nebraska communities.

Have a Voice!

How does business communicate your needs with public agencies?

BUSINESS EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER

Members of the private sector can inform the public sector of specific issues hindering their businesses’ recovery through NPP. Reporting these issues can assist the state in identifying bigger picture trends, possibly influencing priority of effort for the state recovery. Information may include situation reports and infrastructure status updates - this is information companies need in order to make better decisions regarding employee safety, business continuity, and customer relationships.
