In FY 2004, HAZUS-MH software was utilized, to varying degrees, in all segments of the market, including other nations. Analyzing orders placed for HAZUS software, local government agencies placed 39 percent of the orders, 23 percent went to private industry, 13 percent went to universities, 8 percent each went to Federal and State agencies, 7 percent went to individuals with unidentified affiliations, including some Indian Tribes, and 1 percent each went to interest group organizations and the military.
The 2004 data indicate that 68 percent of the States and 66 percent of the pre-disaster mitigation projects submitted to FEMA used HAZUS. Many of those that did not use HAZUS indicated they were well into the planning process when HAZUS-MH was released in March 2004. Of those that did not use HAZUS to date, many indicated they would in subsequent mitigation planning efforts. In addition, several States indicated that they ran HAZUS and provided HAZUS products to their communities, which may have resulted in underreporting of HAZUS usage at the local level.
