The agreement now represents more than 81 million Americans Fire departments respond to a call for help every 1.4 seconds “There are 120,000 fewer volunteer firefighters under the age of 40 today than 20 years ago.”(Source: National Volunteer Fire Council) ER Data Drivers – Market Evolution 20 John Sztykiel

  21. Every 5 minutes in the United States, 23 adults are turning 65 and by 2030 that number will double. Within 10 years, almost 50 million Americans will be over 65, and for the first time in our history, the elderly will outnumber children under age 5. Federal funding “President Bush’s fiscal year 2009 budget request for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) represents $50.5 billion in funding, which is an increase of 6.8% over the 2008 fiscal year level – excluding funds provided in emergency supplemental funding.” (Source: Department of Homeland Security) Approximately 54% (or 67,000) of all fire trucks are greater than 15 years old ER Data Drivers – Market Evolution 21 John Sztykiel

Today, the FAMA president works an extra 3 to 7 hrs/wk Board member – 1 to 5 hrs/wk Committee chairs – 1 to 3 hrs/wk President, Board members, committee chairs all utilize people within their own firms Federal governments (Canada and U.S.) greater involvement and opportunity State/provincial process just starting Markets are changing now, global vs just U.S. and Canada in the past Membership has higher expectations 31 John Sztykiel
