Inspect & Assess
This phase delivers the engineering clarity required to define compliant, permit-ready flood protection paths based on site-specific risk.
Defined Risk.
Clear Direction.
At FloodReady, we recognize that facility owners and infrastructure stakeholders require clear, technically grounded insight into flood risk without disrupting daily operations. Our inspection and assessment phase is structured, methodical, and aligned with regulatory requirements.
Scope Of Work
On-Site Evaluation
We begin by visiting the site to observe access points, building interfaces, utilities, elevations, and operational sensitivities that affect flood-protection feasibility and constructability.
Flood Risk Review
We review applicable flood zones, base flood elevations, historical flood behavior, and site-specific vulnerabilities that influence system selection and performance expectations.
Existing Condition Review
We examine available drawings, surveys, prior permits, and municipal records to confirm conditions and identify gaps that may affect design, permitting, or installation.
Operational Continuity
We coordinate with facility and operations teams to understand deployment requirements, access limitations, staffing constraints, and business-continuity priorities.
Scope, Schedule & Cost
Based on verified conditions and risk factors, we provide initial guidance on viable protection strategies, anticipated permitting pathways, and high-level cost and schedule considerations.
For project-specific questions, permitting considerations, or scope clarification.
Engineering-Led Approach
Throughout this phase, we define site conditions, exposure drivers, and performance criteria while outlining preliminary scope, schedule, and budget parameters. Clients receive practical guidance on viable protection strategies and permitting pathways before advancing to formal design.
