Preparedness Program Self-Assessment Toolkit

Turn a preparedness self-assessment into a practical improvement agenda.

What's included

An Excel workbook with 24 assessment questions, a documented 0–3 rubric, evidence fields, scored and unscored coverage summaries, and an action tracker with deadline and closure-evidence checks; an HTML quick-start guide; a text read-me; and a four-page editable Word assessment report with a worked improvement example.

Who it's for

Program managers and teams reviewing their overall preparedness program.

How to use it

Review the 24 assessment questions, record evidence, score consistently and move identified gaps into the action tracker.

Before you choose

This assesses your preparedness program. For a focused review of existing EOP and continuity documents, compare the Plan Review Checklist & Scorecard. The assessment is an internal planning aid, not a certification or official federal assessment.

Formats and software
