We do not evaluate specific products and services nor do we accept solicitations.
Your registration and profile information is collected and forwarded to the Louisiana

The Louisiana Business Emergency Operations Center (LA BEOC) is a joint partnership
between Louisiana Economic Development (LED), the Governor's Office of Homeland
Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP), the National Incident Management Systems
& Advanced Technologies (NIMSAT) Institute at the University of Louisiana at
Lafayette and Stephenson Disaster Management Institute (SDMI) at Louisiana State
University.
The LA BEOC supports the coordination of activities and resources of businesses
and volunteer organizations in Louisiana and across the nation to improve response
and self-sufficiency, reduce reliance on FEMA and other federal assistance in order
to maximize business, industry and economic stabilization, returning the business
environment to normal operations as quickly as possible.
The LA BEOC will work with businesses to improve their disaster preparedness; improve
communication with business and industry before, during and after disaster events;
rapidly develop sound economic-impact estimates to support decision making and requests
for business assistance; coordinate response efforts to assist businesses in their
efforts to return to normal operations as quickly as possible; and help coordinate
post disaster economic recovery.
