Emergency Planning

Incident & Accident Preparedness

Most organizations believe they are prepared for their next incident or accident. Our experience as a party member to multiple high-profile accidents leads us to believe otherwise. All organizations have room to improve their preparedness to respond to these often chaotic events. For years we have shared lessons learned at the NTSB Training Center, industry briefings, and through one-on-one courses for organizations. Whether it be training, a comprehensive review of an existing Emergency Response Plan (ERP) and Post-Accident / Incident Plan (PAIP), or assistance drafting one from the start we are your solution.

Relationship Management

Working together with your regulators and investigative authorities will not only make your operation smoother, but it will make it safer. We all have stories of times when we felt targeted but from our experience, there is a path forward. We coach operators on better ways to work together using open communication, transparency, and trust. We provide you with the tools to create and foster a positive relationship with the authorities that are responsible for ensuring your operations are safe and compliant.

Accident Investigation Support

After an accident happens it is too late to prepare. Even the best prepared, trained, and experienced organization will be shocked and confused. Navigating the process is difficult, but with the help of an outside perspective who has been through this, it is manageable. Organizations may find they are struggling between opposing motivations: preventing a recurrence or similar accident and protecting themselves from often inevitable litigation. We can help draw that line for your team and create separation and balance between these two realities of today’s operating environment.
