AVERAGE ANNUALIZED LOSS METHODOLOGY AND APPLICATION
1. Requirement Summary
Bid solicitation # 202302960 is issued for the following requirement.
Public Safety Canada’s, Policy and Outreach Directorate - Emergency Management and Programs Branch, has a requirement for a Contractor to: (a) Develop an Average Annualized Loss (AAL) methodology that increases standardization across all natural hazards affecting Canada; and (b) Apply this methodology to calculate AAL values for winter storms and summer convective storms, recognizing the latter are comprised of several weather phenomena including hail, wind, lightning, tornados, and rain, applicable to the Canadian context. The Contractor is expected to use the inputs of hazard loss, damages, and exposure data both provided by Public Safety Canada (PS), insured loss data (e.g., CATIQ), as well as Contractor self-guided data collection.
2. Background
Disaster losses in Canada have grown significantly since the early 1990s. In Budget 2019, the Government of Canada committed to supporting an Emergency Management Strategy for Canada, including the development of a National Risk Profile (NRP). This involves moving forward with a number of measures to improve understanding of disaster risks and improve planning in all sectors of society.
Subsequent to Budget 2019, the Prime Minister of Canada reiterated the importance of understanding disaster risk, and instructed the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness to develop a NRP to inform decision-making and planning as part of efforts to strengthen Canada’s all hazards approach to emergency management. In order to support this mandate priority, PS has continued work to advance the NRP, which aims to provide Canada with a strategic national risk and capability assessment to improve our understanding of the risk posed by hazards and our current capability to address them.
As part of the national strategic risk assessment, PS is conducting a series of risk and capability assessments using nationally representative disaster scenarios. Twelve risk and capability assessments were conducted in 2021-22, and a second series of assessments is set to take place in 2022-23. The first round of risk and capability assessments targeted floods, wildfires, and earthquakes, which were identified as the three costliest hazards that Canadians face based on average annualized loss at the time of assessment. The second round of risk and capability assessments targeted heat events, hurricanes, and space weather. This requirement supports the third round of risk and capability assessments for winter storms and summer convective storms.

The period of the Contract is from 6 months of date of Contract award.
