Every resilience decision starts with a view of risk: which hazards, which assets, which people and over what time frame. These guides cover vulnerability assessment and equity mapping, scenario analysis, catastrophe models and the tools companies use to assess physical risk.
The common failure is an assessment that sits on a shelf. The guides here lean toward assessments built to drive a decision, whether that is a capital plan, a disclosure or a grant application.
