To aid users in the determination of asset priority, Haystax has created and deployed in Cal COP a Priority Assessment. This assessment asks a series of basic questions about an asset and when submitted recommends a local priority level (based on a 1 to 4 scale), as well as a priority level (either level 1 or 2) based on the National Critical Infrastructure Prioritization Program metrics. Once submitted, results appear in the Assessment Information box on the Overview page of the assessment. Existing priority levels are not automatically adjusted to the recommended level–users must make the determination about adjusting it and do so manually.
Guidance for the new priority assessment will be added to the Help section of Cal COP in coming months. It can also be found under resources on this website or here: 2021 Prioritization Guidance
