An energy management jounce bumper assembly absorbs energy between a first component and a second component of a vehicle. The energy management jounce bumper assembly includes a bumper axially compressible between the first and second components. A plate is connected to the bumper. The plate has a body portion having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A first plurality of ribs is disposed on the first surface and a second plurality of ribs is disposed on the second surface. The body portion of the plate has a standard position wherein the body portion is either one of planar and non-planar and has a first height. The plate is adaptable between the standard position and a compressed position wherein the body portion is either one of non-planar and planar, respectively, and has a second height that is less than the first height.
