Federal Cooperative Agreement Summary

Resilitix Intelligence LLC received a $1.21M Cooperative Agreement award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) for SBIR Phase II development of an intelligent, analytics-driven disaster resilience and situational awareness platform. The award, effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2027, supports the development of a unified cloud-based platform integrating predictive, analytical, and generative artificial intelligence (AI) applications to transform multi-modal data streams—including mobility data and lifeline systems information—into near-real-time situational awareness for emergency response. Building on validated prototype modules, the Phase II effort focuses on hardening evacuation and community-lifeline monitoring capabilities for hurricanes, wildfires, and floods while introducing three new functions: predictive evacuation analytics, an AI-powered disaster co-pilot, and context-aware guidance systems for disaster responders.

The platform is designed to lower adoption barriers for local and state emergency management agencies through seamless integration with widely used geographic information systems and cloud-based delivery, enabling faster data-driven decision-making that anticipates evacuations, identifies failing critical infrastructure, and targets assistance to exposed populations. The project addresses the rapidly growing disaster resilience market while delivering significant public value through reduced human and economic losses from disasters, which currently cost the United States billions of dollars annually. Work will be performed in Houston, Texas.
