Technology

The Sulzer Group is committed to streamlining the complex FEMA Public Assistance Program.

In today’s world, technology plays a vital role in disaster recovery and emergency management. We leverage advanced technology solutions to enhance efficiency, transparency, and responsiveness in all services. From digital project management platforms that streamline coordination to data analytics that inform recovery strategies, our team implements tools that improve decision-making and optimize resource allocation.

We also help clients integrate GIS mapping, data reporting systems, and remote communication tools into their emergency response and recovery operations. By embracing cutting-edge technology, we empower clients to make faster, data-driven decisions that improve recovery outcomes.


Customized ArcGIS Survey123 Solutions

Our team has expertly tailored ArcGIS Survey123 to seamlessly capture and analyze critical data required by FEMA. This ensures that all necessary information is collected precisely and efficiently. Drone technology enables us to quickly and safely assess damage in remote or hazardous areas. By capturing high-resolution aerial imagery, we can accurately identify affected infrastructure and estimate repair costs.

Automated FEMA Standard Form Generation

We’ve developed automated processes to generate FEMA Standard Forms directly from the collected data. This eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors, and significantly speeds up the grant application process.

Real-Time Insights with Custom Dashboards

Our custom dashboards provide real-time visibility into project status, key performance indicators, and critical data visualizations. These dashboards are tailored to the specific needs of our clients, allowing them to make informed decisions and respond promptly to evolving situations.



Corporate Resources Available

Headquartered at 4641 Fairfield St, Ste D in Metairie, LA, the Sulzer Group has an additional office in Las Vegas, New Mexico, with additional personnel who can be mobilized to provide further assistance to our clients.

Within the Metairie office, Sulzer Group has 30 full-time staff with printers, supplies, and sufficient office space to facilitate additional staffing. Sulzer Group operates a suite of business programs to include QuickBase/QuickBooks, Sharepoint, and Microsoft Project to facilitate day to day operations.

Project Management Systems

Project Managers have the capability to link to project specific folders and documents that have been uploaded to Sharepoint, the Sulzer Group’s file depository system. It also has an ad hoc query tool, allowing clients to request an array of reports on an as needed basis.

Using a client specific application within Quickbase, the Sulzer Group has the ability to create, customize, and standardize reports that are automatically updated and can be provided to the client at any time.

These reports can be customized to include logos, graphs, charts, tables, and utilize information from Quickbase. Combining Sharepoint and Quickbase allows clients to monitor project management, grants management, and administrative costs as they relate to federal disaster funding.

Hard and soft skill sets to meet our clients’ needs and requests

Because the Sulzer Team has some of the country’s best talent across a wide range of specialties and skill sets, we are able to effectively respond to any client request in an almost immediate timeframe.

Beyond management and project delivery services, we are prepared to respond with specialized services as wide ranging as environmental sciences, historic preservation measures, master planning, design services, surveying, engineering, floodplain modeling, resilience planning and development, GIS mapping, and mitigation among numerous additional areas of focus and specialization.

360° Digital Photography

In addition to conventional data captured from our site visits, damage assessments and project management, field site visits could include Matterport scanning technology to build a three dimensional (3D) model of every facility. This service could be utilized during new construction to identify the utilities and systems located in the walls.

The building would be scanned prior to the insulation and gypsum board installation so that the Maintenance Department can troubleshoot future issues or renovations. A key feature of these scans is that it provides zoom capability to capture specific elements of the scene for close-up inspection and further examination.

These advanced images have accurate scalable capabilities and will allow our clients to do more than simply read about the facilities—close-up interactive visuals will make the facilities come to life.
