Bintel works with government agencies, land managers, and communities across the United States to develop Community Wildfire Protection Plans and the collaborative infrastructure to put them into action.

A CWPP is just the first step towards a safer more resilient community. Bintel partners with counties, municipalities, fire districts, tribal nations, and land managers on CWPP development, wildfire risk assessment, and mitigation management. We focus on the collaboration, shared data, and decision-making processes that turn a CWPP into action plans for mitigation, suppression, and recovery.
Compliant CWPPs that unlock state and federal funding, satisfy regulatory requirements, and serve as long-term wildfire resilience roadmaps — delivered on time and on budget.
Post CWPP Support Services supplement client staff with grant writing, mitigation design/costing and management of mitigation projects. Our goal is to accelerate the execution and tracking of projects to prepare communities for a fire NOW.
From small rural fire districts to large multi-jurisdictional plans — a few of the communities we've worked with.
cwpp.us is Bintel's geospatial wildland fire planning platform. It gives government agencies, municipalities, and land managers a working spatial view of wildfire risk, community assets, and CWPP planning data — organized so the people responsible for a community's safety are looking at the same information.
Bintel includes training on our application for your core team. Our cloud native CWPP platform was originally developed as part of a project with Eagle County Colorado. The features are integrated with our services and include hosting data, documents and maps for community access.
Geospatial Data Governance
The data collected and created as part of a CWPP project has been treated as a onetime science project with the “300-page PDF” as the repository. At the very least this will result in an expensive and time-consuming project when an update is required. At most, the operational value of the effort is lost. Static maps are almost useless, our maps are all interactive and built with public domain basemaps. The data is curated and hosted for the five-year life of the CWPP.
Bintel GIS Platform
Our platform provides the core team and the public access to all maps to support a project. Our “living CWPP” is built to be used during the project, not a digital publishing afterthought. A client's URL on our platform can either be used standalone for community access or linked to the client’s website. Security for non-public information is provided by AWS SSO services through Microsoft or Google.
Situational specific maps can be generated for suppression response, remediation, or mitigation project tracking. Value-added services for our CWPP clients are facilitated through our platform.
