A plan that exists before the emergency, and works when nothing else does.
MAD Gear builds the planning ecosystem families and organizations rely on when infrastructure fails. The Contingency Planner gives you the physical system that works without power. ReadyPlan keeps it shared, searchable, and synced across your household.
Two halves of one planning system, designed to work together.
The Contingency Planner is the physical record your household keeps in the binder. ReadyPlan is the shared digital layer that keeps it synced across every family member and accessible offline. Each one stands alone, and together they are the system MAD Gear is built around.

Built from operational experience with infrastructure failure."WE WERE READY for a week of ICE. We have horses, chickens, and a water well along with a barn and outbuildings. It's very easy to forget something but we worked our plan. Thank you ReadyPlan."
"Very good planner, I am an Emergency Manager and I use this for my Family."
"I looked around for a planner that had modularity, good flow, information related to my plan, and ruggedness. I came upon your planner; it checked the blocks. I purchased it."
"Husband LOVED this Christmas gift. Well worth the money."
"Mountains of paper simplified down into an app that I can easily use with my family. The interface is no frills and to the point. It works perfectly with my paper planners from MAD Gear."

Courses
Short training tracks on Meshtastic, PACE, and contingency planning fundamentals.
See the catalogBuilt for Emergency Management departments that need a system their teams will actually use.
Most preparedness training assumes individuals. MAD Gear is built for the unit that has to coordinate dozens or hundreds of households at once, including county emergency management offices, school districts, and regional preparedness programs.
The Contingency Planner and ReadyPlan ship as a stocked kit your staff can hand a family on day one of an incident. The training tracks teach the operators behind the program. Pricing scales for department procurement rather than individual retail.
If your team is responsible for a population during a regional event, we can talk about how this fits.
