FEMA Public Assistance · AI Platform

Cleaner recovery.
Faster reimbursement.

Clear Path automates labor and cost summarization, validation, and eligibility for FEMA Public Assistance — turning raw project data into audit-ready packages in a fraction of the time.

The Problem

FEMA cost substantiation is slow, manual, and expensive.

Disaster recovery teams spend weeks reconciling timesheets, payroll, and work orders before a single cost can be submitted. Errors delay funding. Gaps invite findings. The cost of substantiating costs is, ironically, its own crisis.

01

Fragmented data. Labor hours, equipment usage, and expenses live in separate systems that rarely speak to each other.

02

Manual reconciliation. Analysts spend hundreds of hours per project cross-checking records by hand.

03

Audit exposure. Missing documentation and ineligible costs lead to clawbacks long after reimbursement arrives.

How it works

Ingest. Validate. Deliver.

A single workflow replaces weeks of spreadsheet reconciliation — purpose-built around FEMA Public Assistance rules.

01

Ingest

Pull timesheets, payroll, work orders, and equipment logs directly from your existing systems — no reformatting, no re-keying.

02

Validate

FEMA eligibility rules are applied automatically. Anomalies are surfaced, exceptions are flagged, and every entry is traced back to its source.

03

Deliver

Produce clean, validated, audit-ready cost summary packages that slot straight into your submission workflow.
