December 16, 2002—To help building owners, property managers, and facilities professionals to address critical infrastructure security and building vulnerability, VFA, a provider of Web-based tools for strategic infrastructure management, has partnered with UTD, an engineering firm specializing in threat and vulnerability assessments, security and risk analysis, emergency operations, and disaster response.
Through its relationship with UTD, VFA offers customers decision-support tools and strategies for conducting infrastructure and building vulnerability and security-program planning that can be integrated with facilities condition assessments and the related analysis of data.
VFA’s Capital Planning and Management Solutions (CPMS) software and assessment methodology combined with UTD’s services can help users reduce their risk to both natural and manmade hazards, increase the effectiveness of their personnel and resource protection programs, and have a validated methodology that can be used to comply with insurance and bonding requirements. In addition, the analysis and reports can be used to apply for federal, state, and local infrastructure and equipment grants.
