Abstract This paper proposed and tested a multilayer framework for modeling network dynamics of inter-organizational coordination in resilience planning among interdependent infrastructure sectors. Each layer in the network represents one infrastructure sector such as flood control, transportation, and emergency response. Coordination probability was introduced to approximate the inconsistent coordination between organizations, based on which the intra-layer or inter-layer link removal was conducted and inter-organizational coordination efficiency within and across infrastructure sectors was hereby unveiled. To test the proposed framework, a multilayer collaboration network of 35 organizations from five infrastructure sectors in Harris County, Texas, was mapped based on a survey of Hurricane Harvey. The analysis results showed that before Hurricane Harvey, coordination among flood control, transportation, and infrastructure development sectors lacked essential integration to foster robust resilience plans. The proposed framework enables an assessment of coordination efficiency among organizations involving in resilience planning and provides an indicator for urban resilience measurement. © 2019 American Society of Civil Engineers.
