Who manages the daily operations of the LABEOC?

The NIMSAT Institute at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

What is the Louisiana Business Emergency Operations Center? 

Founded in 2010, the LABEOC supports the business community during a disaster. The goal is to improve response, improve self-sufficiency, and reduce reliance on FEMA and other federal assistance to maximize business, industry, and economic stabilization, returning the business environment to normal operations as quickly as possible.

How can the LABEOC help my business?

  • Receive immediate notification of state and parish decisions affecting your business. These notifications (evacuation, road closure, etc.) are pertinent to your business disaster plan and employee safety. Rather than searching for information online or in other forms of media, the most up-to-date information is listed in one place.
  • Receive notification of emerging state needs. As needs arise during the response and recovery from an emergency, you can receive alerts as a business, nonprofit, government agency, or concerned citizen. These notifications are designed to engage businesses throughout the state and stimulate our economy.
  • Situational Awareness. We may ask you to report post-storm status, recovery issues, economic impact, or supply chain demands. By gauging the situational awareness of local businesses, officials can make informed decisions and avoid duplication or conflict of efforts from different sectors.
