SynergyPACT (Public Assistance Consulting Team)

About SynergyPACT…

When disaster strikes, one’s ability to maximize funding opportunities through Insurance and supplemental FEMA Public Assistance is critical to timely recovery. More importantly, helping to minimize the financial impact and burden that a Declared Event can have on your organization is paramount.

A free resource to Members insured through the Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT), SynergyPACT (Public Assistance Consulting Team) was formed to help public entities correctly identify anticipated insurance proceeds and eligible FEMA Grant Funding related to insured property. SynergyPACT’s commitment to FMIT Members is to help bridge the gap between FEMA Public Assistance & Insurance as necessary to successfully address both short- and long-term recovery objectives. More importantly, when working together, it is our shared responsibility to ensure that all applicable FMIT Coverage Forms and Insurance Proceeds have been properly accounted for during Project Worksheet Development & Submittals.

SynergyPACT works as an extension of your Team and in cooperation with other contracted Public Assistance Firms, Florida Department of Emergency Management (FDEM) and FEMA Representatives.

SynergyPACT is your Trusted Insurance Resource…

FMIT Members are encouraged to reach out to SynergyPACT during Declared Events with questions or concerns specific to damages to insured property – especially prior to FEMA Public Assistance application and Project Worksheet (PW) development. It is important to realize that FMIT Insurance is the responsible party when determining coverage and anticipated insurance proceeds related to scheduled property. FEMA & FDEM should not be the first point of contact specific to your insured buildings &/or assets. They are neither intended to be first responders or the primary source of recovery funding related to your scheduled property. FMIT Claim’s Department is committed to providing comprehensive coverage review and timely claim adjudication in support of an insured loss.

FMIT Members are equipped to maximize all available funding opportunities while complying with documentation requirements that limit the threat of future FEMA de-obligation. FMIT has invested a great deal of time and money in the ongoing support of SynergyPACT for their insured Members. FMIT’s simpliCity℠ software, that Members have access to, includes several features developed to support Member’s Public Assistance Submittals:
