Essential 8 – Increase Infrastructure Resilience
General approach
Coordinating function– Decentralised system
Scorecard used to raise work quality– Supporting us in supporting others
Approach
Based on the two scenarios from Essential 2– Ice storm: regional project 2011– Flash flood: based on 2013 rain– F-samverkan– Additional interviews
Approach
Private stakeholders – Hard to engage in a small city – regional approach
Regional project: food, fuel, electricity, transports and IT– Planing phase now – Small scale 2015-2016– Using Scorecard in the planning
Indicators
29 indicators 11 sectors/types of infrastructure
– Service days at loss– Critical asset service days at loss– Cost of restoration
All indicators are assessment indicators

Challenges
The extent
Indicators can be hard to assess
Engaging private companies
Sensitive information
External consequences
Challenges
Continuity management vs. scenario based method– Both applicable – desired outcome– Quantitative vs qualitative measurements
? !Scenario
Assets, linkages, resources
Outcome
Important essential!
Identifying different infrastructure sectors
Understanding them (discussions)– Foundation of resilience– Expanding Indicator 2.1.3!
Identify which scenarios cause disruptions to many
Suggestions
Generic and comprehensive identification and assessment of critical assets/nodes etc
Focus even more on shortages or critical nodes affected, as well as number of customers affected
Function and infrastructure– Eg roads vs. transportation (staff, vehicles, fuel, goods
etc.)?
Linkages and cascading consequences
Essential 9 – Ensure Effective Disaster Response
Approach
13 Indicators
General indicators– Regional crisis management network – F-samverkan
Scenario specific indicators– Based upon the two scenarios from E2

Challenges
Complicated indicators
Regional level – exceeds smaller cities Several stakeholders – information needed but
who are we ”assessing”?– Discussions the outcome
Essentials 8 and 9 Linkages – hard to map but key to some
assessments Technology focused eg warning system
Outcome
Identification and assessment of general functions
Assessing what we need for different scenarios
A discussion about capability and resources in different organisations
Asking for the outcome – positive!
Suggestions
General functions – general planning Specific functions – critical consequences/abilities
rather than consequences for defined scenarios
Based on E2 – more generic?
Essential 8 and 9 – perspectives Infrastructure and function
– Organisation, cooperation, knowledge etc.
