The purpose of the PS-Prep (Private Sector Preparedness) Program is to enhance nationwide resilience in an all-hazards environment by encouraging private sector preparedness. The program will provide a mechanism by which a private sector entity – a company, facility, not-for-profit corporation, hospital, stadium, university, etc. – may be certified by an accredited third party establishing that the private sector entity conforms to one or more preparedness standards adopted by DHS (the U.S. Department of Homeland Security).
