RECONSTRUCTION & DISASTER RELIEF 

Addressing the aftermath of calamities, the disaster relief industry pivots around providing immediate aid, managing crises, and spearheading recovery efforts. The industry is vital to assuring affected populations of support, maintaining social stability, and mitigating the impact of disasters on human life and the economy.

 

The ability to quickly mobilise, adapt, and execute relief operations is pivotal, especially when local infrastructure is compromised due to the calamity.

The economic damage from disasters is substantial, e.g., Hurricane Katrina (2005) resulted in losses exceeding $160 billion.

Immediate Challenges:

  • Accessibility: Efficiently reaching and operating within disaster-struck zones.

  • Security: Ensuring safety for relief teams and resources amidst potential chaos.

Long Term Challenges:

  • Scalability: Scaling operations in accordance with evolving on-ground needs.

  • Coordination: Synchronising diverse entities and resources under cohesive operations.

  • Sustainability: Minimising environmental and economic burdens of relief activities.

  • Resource Management: Ensuring optimal allocation and utilisation of resources.

WHO WE CAN ASSIST

  • Operators: Crisis Managers, Emergency Response Teams

  • Owners: Governments, NGOs, International Relief Organizations

  • Suppliers: Emergency Supply Chain Providers, Logistic Companies

  • Beneficiaries: Affected Populations, Local Governments

  • Partners: International Aid Agencies, Donor Organizations, Local Volunteers

  • Innovators: Technologists and Engineers working on Crisis Management Solutions

  • Media: Journalists and Media Agencies covering Disaster Management and Relief Efforts

HOW WE WILL HELP

Globally, natural disasters resulted in an estimated $210 billion of damages in 2020

Our Smart Floating Hubs become a beacon of hope, structure, and stability in the chaotic aftermath of disasters:

  • Agility: Rapidly deployable hubs ensure immediate initiation of relief operations.

  • Adaptability: Configurable setups accommodate varied mission-critical activities and evolving needs.

  • Security: Establishing secure and stable zones for effective relief management.

  • Connectivity: Facilitating seamless communication and coordination among disparate relief entities.

  • Sustainability: Ensuring environmentally considerate operations and resource management.

INDUSTRY CASE

An estimated 24 million people globally were displaced by sudden-onset disasters in 2019 alone. https://www.internal-displacement.org

Scenario: A massive earthquake has resulted in widespread destruction, crippling the local port and diminishing access to essential resources and external aid.

  • Configuration: A strategically deployed cluster of x7 floating hubs (in a flower configuration) provides:

  • A total load capacity of over 7,000 tonnes and over 11,000 sqm surface area.

  • A centralised base for international aid to be received, organised, and distributed.

  • A platform for medical entities to operate, providing crucial care to those affected.

 

Outcome: The hubs not only bridge the infrastructural void left by the devastated port but also streamline and centralise the otherwise fragmented relief efforts. This configuration alleviates immediate crises and serves as a structured, scalable foundation for prolonged recovery and rebuilding initiatives.
