We help government agencies and community partners design, secure, and manage grant-funded initiatives that strengthen preparedness, response, and recovery capacity. Our team has extensive experience in grant writing, grant development, and grant administration across state, local, and nonprofit sectors—translating complex funding requirements into achievable projects that deliver measurable community benefit.

Areas of Practice
Public Advisors Group provides specialized consulting services in aviation and air operations, with a focus on developing and managing proposals for helicopter and fixed-wing operators responding to public-sector solicitations. Our experience includes researching qualified aviation providers, drafting technical narratives for emergency response and logistical support missions, and aligning proposals with agency requirements for safety, capability, and compliance. We assist operators and contracting entities alike in structuring clear scopes of work, cost frameworks, and evaluation criteria that meet both FAA and procurement standards.
Our team also advises on aviation program design for emergency management and public safety agencies—helping clients integrate aerial reconnaissance, resource delivery, and personnel transport capabilities into their operational plans. Whether supporting an RFP response or helping government partners establish aviation mission readiness, Public Advisors Group bridges the gap between air-service providers and public-sector needs to ensure effective, safe, and mission-focused outcomes.
Emergency Management
Public Advisors Group provides strategic and operational support across the full emergency management cycle. Drawing on more than a decade of experience leading statewide resilience and emergency initiatives, we help agencies and communities design practical systems that protect people, maintain continuity, and accelerate recovery. Our expertise includes disaster recovery planning, FEMA Public Assistance, after-action reviews, and the design of local “Typed Packages” that enable communities to shelter in place and respond independently during major incidents.
Public Advisors Group supports government agencies, nonprofits, and community partners in developing, updating, and operationalizing emergency operations plans (EOPs) that align with FEMA’s Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 101 and the National Incident Management System. We bring practical, field-tested experience designing functional and hazard-specific annexes, integrating continuity of operations frameworks, and ensuring plans translate effectively into actionable procedures. Our work helps jurisdictions clarify roles, improve coordination, and maintain readiness for disasters ranging from wildfires and winter storms to public health emergencies.

Resilience Building
Aviation Consulting
Resilience is not a single project, it’s an ecosystem. Public Advisors Group partners with local governments, utilities, and community-based organizations to strengthen infrastructure, social networks, and governance systems before a crisis strikes. From designing resilience hubs and networks to developing shelter-in-place capacity and climate-adaptation policies, we help communities build the organizational and physical foundations that allow them to recover stronger. Our approach integrates emergency management, public policy, and long-term community development into one cohesive framework.
