QUALITY ASSURANCE SYSTEM (QAS) FOR BDRRM PLANS
Introduction: QAS

Two Component of QAS • A system developed to ensure the


quality of BDRRM Plans through an
(2) Barangay Disaster accessible and user friendly monitoring
(1) Quality Assessment Risk Reduction and
Tool Management Plan and evaluation mechanism from the
Template barangay to the national level

• Aims to establish and strengthen the


capacities of communities to
anticipate, cope, and recover from
the negative impacts of emergency
occurrences and disasters at the local
level through quality-based local
DRRM planning and budgeting

• Ensure active and meaningful


community and sectoral
participation in the planning process

Quality Assessment Tool (QAT)
Components of QAS

• A tool to measures the “QUALITY” of


Barangay DRRM Plan
• It aids in the identification of gaps, needs,
recommendations, and development of
participatory action points on how to address
them and eventually enhance the plan to
effectively implement DRRM projects and
activities at the local level
• It has a Quality Assessment Portal (QAP) that
can be accessed online
• It contains a user-friendly digital copy of the
QAT, assessment results, and DRRM Officers
Profiles

BDRRRM Plan Template
Components of QAS

• It is a simple and user-friendly plan template that seeks to


support the enhancement of the current BDRRM Plans
• It is tabular in format which only requires necessary and
significant information that resulted from various
community-based and participatory disaster risk
reduction and management trainings and workshops
such as but not limited to:
 Community Profiling
 Community Risk Assessment
 Participatory Capacity and Vulnerability
Assessment
 Child-Centered Community Based Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management (CCCBDRRM)
 Incident Command System
 Contingency Planning

Quality Assurance System for BDRRM Planning


BDRRM Plan Template

• The simplified BDRRM Plan template sets


the minimum requirements of a BDRRM
Plan based on the Quality Assessment Tool
but provides opportunities for innovation
based on the context of the barangay,
municipality, province and region. The
community or the barangay can use their
respective local dialect to develop the plan
