Disaster & Risk Management Planning

EXPERTISE

PCI has built up advanced expertise in earthquake disaster management especially for urban areas by working in cities with high-risk potentials such as Tehran, Manila, Istanbul, Bogotá, etc. PCI is well positioned to offer critical know-how to cities that are not experienced to deal with disaster planning.

In addition to disaster management planning for natural disasters as floods, tsunami and landslides, PCI makes use of the abundant knowledge and experience in urban earthquake disaster management available in Japan. We have a strong commitment to maintaining our lead at the forefront of disaster management.

PCI's strongest area of specialization is formulation of master plans for earthquake disaster management. PCI has developed a strategic framework to reduce vulnerability to urban disasters. PCI is also capable of performing seismic diagnosis and proposing retrofitting schemes for buildings and infrastructure adoptable to local conditions, as well as establishing disaster management centers, taking a community-based approach to preparedness and delivering tangible projects in a cost-effective way.
