Public Assistance Delivery Model has four phases,

Completed/Fully Documented Lane: Projects are routed to this lane when the work done is 100% complete or will be completed in 2 weeks.

Projects can be from any Category of Work
Projects in the Completed Lane do not require site inspections after damage facilities “including non-complex environmental and historic preservation and/or hazard mitigation

Standard Lane: All non-complex projects which have Work to be Completed are routed to this lane.

Site inspections and/or site validations are required and performed by Site Inspectors
The Program Delivery Manager places non-complex damaged facilities (e.g., roads, culverts, buildings with minor damage, channels, parks) in this lane
Projects that have both Work Complete and Work to be Completed damages are grouped into a Standard Lane project. All included damages require site inspections.

Specialized Lane: Complex projects requiring technical specialties and/or projects which require significant environmental and historic preservation, hazard mitigation, and/or insurance involvement are routed to this lane.

Technical Specialists perform site inspections for specialized projects
The Program Delivery Manager places specialized projects (e.g., water treatment facility) in this lane

The Public Assistance Delivery Model has four phases, each with its own objective. Breaking the model up into phases allows for greater transparency and tracking of Applicants' grants.

Phase I: Operational Planning Objective: Identify Applicants' disaster impacts and recovery priorities.

Phase II: Damage Intake & Eligibility Analysis Objective: Capture Applicants' disaster-related damages and determine eligibility within 60 days of the Recovery Scoping Meeting.

Phase III: Scoping & Costing III Objective: Develop the Damage Description and Dimensions, scope of work, and actual costs for Completed/Fully Documented projects, or develop the scope of work and cost estimates for Standard and Specialized projects. The Consolidated Resource Center also validates Applicant-provided scope of work and cost estimates.

Phase IV: Obligation Objective: Obligate projects, complete the Recovery Transition Meeting with the Applicant, and transition Field Operations to the Region.
