What We Can Offer
Coronavirus Recovery
Plan Review
What happens next? Where do we go from here? These are the questions that many of us are asking these days.
Discuss your COVID-19 reopening plans and actions with our emergency management consultants.
Assess your planned course of action and available resources.
Update your organization's Emergency Response Plan or Emergency Action Plan with lessons learned from the past few months.
This process typically includes:
- Mapping out your incident management structure and organizational roles and responsibilities.
- Defining a communications strategy for your internal and external stakeholders.
- Create an action register and assign tasks using an accountability system.
- Develop milestones and trigger points for response actions and tasks.
- Discuss preparations to resume closures and outbreak procedures if other rounds of coronavirus outbreaks occur in your operating area.
- Presentation of your updated plan to your team.
After-Action Reporting &
Improvement Planning
One of the biggest mistakes we can make as a result of this pandemic is to not learn from it. Conducting a thorough after-action review of your organization's COVID-19 response actions is extremely important to understanding what you can improve upon for future emergencies (not just pandemics).
Our consultants will partner with you to understand what worked well during your response, where there's room for improvement, and how to create actionable improvement plans that include accountability measures to ensure follow-through.
This process typically includes:
- An objective assessment of your team's response actions and communication strategy.
- Interviews and questionnaires with your team and stakeholders.
- Compiling a detailed after-action report (AAR) of your response, continuity, and recovery actions.
- Developing an improvement plan to close any gaps and recommend updates to your organization's Emergency Response Plan or Emergency Action Plan.
- Presentation of the AAR and Improvement Plan to your team
Tabletop Exercises (TTX) for Coronavirus Reopening
Nervous about returning to normal operations? Have a lot of stakeholders to confer with?
A tabletop exercise is a great way to discuss potential scenarios that you may encounter when returning to normal operations following COVID. Sports teams, retail centers, entertainment venues, local governments, school districts, and many others can benefit from these conversations with all of the various stakeholders involved in their operations.
This process typically includes:
- Reviewing your COVID-19 reopening plan and response to the pandemic so far.
- Designing a custom training exercise scenario for your organization and stakeholders.
- Planning the virtual training event, including managing registrations and other logistics.
- Facilitating the COVID tabletop exercise and evaluating your proposed actions and tasks.
