What Find Supplies is

Find Supplies is the disaster sourcing module in ImpactMatrix. It has three tabs — Manual Search across verified retailers, AI Intelligence for disaster-specific recommendations, and Platform Supplies from the network — plus hazard chips for Hurricane, Tornado, Flood, Wildfires, Winter Storms, Earthquake and Drought. Selecting a hazard returns priority supplies for that event type near your location.

What you can do

Real button and tab names \u2014 the module is the same for everyone; what you do with it is not.

Hazard chips

Flood and Winter Storms produce genuinely different first-week manifests. Pick the event you are working.

Manual Search

Search verified retailers near the distribution site rather than freighting water across three states.

AI Intelligence

Ask for hazard-specific recommendations when you are responding in unfamiliar territory.

Platform Supplies

Check the network before you buy — part of the list may already be donated capacity.

Why this matters for your organization type

The problem

Campus emergency plans list categories, not quantities, and rarely connect to what local organizations are sourcing.

What the platform does

It has three tabs — Manual Search across verified retailers, AI Intelligence for disaster-specific recommendations, and Platform Supplies from the network — plus hazard chips for Hurricane, Tornado, Flood, Wildfires, Winter Storms, Earthquake and Drought. Selecting a hazard returns priority supplies for that event type near your location.

What you walk away with

A hazard-specific, location-aware supply picture for planning and for coursework.

How this differs from a preparedness checklist

Household checklists equip one family for a few days. Retailer blogs sell a pallet. Neither knows what is already moving toward the affected area. Find Supplies is sourcing for an operation: hazard-specific, location-aware, and wired to the network where donated supply lives.

Use ImpactMatrix when

Questions

Is this useful for research or teaching?

Yes. Comparing hazard manifests — what a flood consumes against what a winter storm consumes — is concrete teaching material for logistics, public health and emergency management courses, and it is drawn from an operating platform rather than a textbook.

Can it support campus preparedness planning?

It gives quantities, categories and nearby sourcing options for each hazard type. It does not replace your institutional emergency plan or your continuity process.

What does this cost a campus?

Academia shares the business plan catalog and is priced per seat: $9.99/seat up to 100 seats, $5.00/seat up to 500, $2.00/seat up to 2,500 and $1.00/seat up to 10,000, with the largest institutions by custom quote. Every seat is invitable, and you invite students and staff from your seat allotment. The 30-day free trial requires no credit card, and ImpactVolunteer is included with every subscription.

How do organizations find disaster supplies quickly?

In ImpactMatrix, open Find Supplies and select a hazard chip such as Hurricane, Flood or Wildfires. The module returns priority supplies for that event type near your location, and you can search verified retailers, ask AI Intelligence for recommendations, or pull from Platform Supplies on the network.
