We design, plan, conduct, and evaluate three main types of exercise:

1. On-the-ground simulations involving multiple agencies and many players.

2. Communications and paper exercises with local inputs from Playbooks designed jointly by your staff and us.

3. Laptop-based scenarios (table-tops) personalized for your location, both to test and to train public and private sector responders in HazMat and Terrorism incident response actions.

And with all the exercises and simulations that we have done over the last three decades, we have learned what can go wrong in the way of Planning Problems, Technical Problems, and People Problems. Using 30 examples, our Keeping Your Exercises on the Rails presentation offers advice on what to look for in preventing these problems, and how to resolve them when they do occur.
