Transforming Infrastructure and Managing Risk

Produced by the Institute for Innovation

This paper expands on ACT-IAC’s Agenda 2021 capstone document, “Delivering Outcomes, Building Trust” released in July 2020. It focuses on:

• conducting better enterprise risk analysis and management to take action to lower the probability of crises occurring;
• transforming our national infrastructure to better respond to disasters and attacks when they occur; and
• increasing collaboration at all levels of government, as well as with nongovernmental and private sector organizations, to improve data-driven decision-making and response during a crisis and afterward.
   

The paper provides actionable recommendations to improve resilience, security, and efficiency in all types of crises.
