Inspect & Assess
FloodReady inspects and evaluates facility conditions, flood exposure, vulnerable openings, documentation gaps, and mitigation feasibility before engineering, permitting, procurement, or site integration.
Define the Exposure.
Then Select the Solution.
Flood mitigation begins with the facility, not the product. FloodReady reviews site conditions, flood elevations, openings, access constraints, existing documentation, and operational needs to define the next step, whether engineering, permitting, evaluation-only support, or documentation for ownership, insurance, lender, or facility planning review.
What the Assessment Answers
Are vulnerable openings identified?
Are elevations, site conditions and flood-related documents gathered and complete?
Can the facility support a feasible and effective mitigation approach?
Could the mitigation concept support standards and future permit review?
What We Deliver
Flood Exposure Review
We review available flood zone information, Base Flood Elevation (BFE) data, design elevation assumptions, known flood history, and applicable floodplain considerations affecting the facility.
Facility Exposure Assessment
We assess building configuration, vulnerable openings, storefronts, roll-up doors, gates, wall penetrations, slab transitions, access routes, and operational constraints affecting mitigation feasibility.
Documentation and Elevation Review
We review Elevation Certificates, prior permits, drawings, product records, insurance documentation, mitigation records, and coordinate surveyor updates where elevation documentation may be required.
Mitigation Feasibility Study
We evaluate potential flood mitigation approaches based on opening conditions, DFE, access, deployment requirements, facility use, operational constraints, and code-related considerations.
Assessment Study Findings
We prepare findings identifying observed conditions, documentation needs, preliminary mitigation considerations, next steps, and potential engineering, permitting, or implementation pathways.
For project-specific questions, permitting considerations, or scope clarification.
Additional Scope Support
FEMA Form FF-206-FY-22-153 Review & Preparation
Dry Floodproofing Certificate for Non-Residential Structures, where required or applicable.
Property Resilience Assessment Report
Broader flood and resilience assessment based on ASTM E3429-24 guidance, where requested.
Flood Risk Evaluation-Only Support
Independent flood mitigation review for owners, architects, contractors, lenders, insurers, and facility teams, excluding design, permitting, procurement, or site integration.
Typical Inspect & Assess Deliverables
Facility Flood Risk Assessment Report or Technical Memorandum
Certified Elevation Certificate coordination, where required
FEMA Form FF-206-FY-22-153 review or preparation support, where applicable
Optional Property Resilience Assessment based on ASTM E3429-24 guidance, where requested
* Deliverables vary by facility conditions, available records, selected scope, authority requirements, and contractual scope.
Engineering-Led Approach
Flood mitigation assessments require more than a visual walkthrough. FloodReady reviews facility conditions, elevation data, documentation gaps, opening vulnerabilities, and operational constraints through an engineering-led lens before recommending a path forward.
This helps owners understand whether the next step is documentation, design, permitting, procurement, or no-build evaluation.
