DHS moves forward in efforts to aid small business preparedness planning

US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano has announced that a key milestone has been reached in the Department's efforts to develop a ‘robust small business preparedness plan’ - soliciting public comment on a private sector readiness certification program specifically tailored to the needs of small businesses.

DHS has published a notice in the Federal Register seeking public comment on its proposed plan for implementing separate classifications and methods of certification for small businesses under PS-Prep.

The small business preparedness plan is part of the Private Sector Preparedness Accreditation and Certification Program (PS-Prep)
