IEM is Your Partner for a Resilient Future

For over 39 years, IEM has partnered with state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, the Federal government, the private sector, non-profit organizations, and the international community to build a safe, secure, and resilient world. 

IEM knows Disaster Management. 

We have led or supported major programs in each phase of the emergency management life cycle – preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation.  As a leading disaster management firm, our experts have developed and crafted programs at all levels of government and in the private sector to produce outcomes that matter.  In fact, IEM’s experts created many of the federal and state policies that are still in use today. 

As natural disasters increase in frequency and severity, it is vital that organizations work with a partner that understands and values saving lives, protecting property, and building communities back stronger after disaster strikes.

IEM uses risk-based, data-driven services to help emergency managers and other decision makers achieve results that work in the real world. IEM has applied its winning formula of experience, people, and technology to hundreds of emergency management projects for federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial government agencies and the private sector worldwide. Having managed billions of dollars in disaster assistance, coming from a wide array of sources and programs, IEM stands ready to ensure you are able to maximize your recovery dollars to create a resilient future.  Our best practices and lessons learned enable you and your community to excel at mitigating and preparing for disasters and emergencies and to hit the ground running following a disaster.

Most importantly, throughout every part of our work, we never lose sight of our mission – building a safe, secure, and resilient world.  Let us assist you in your resilience journey.
