Extreme Emergency Management

With respect to training and testing, security must ensure that the entire population go through training at least twice a year and that participants in the plan go through training quarterly. The training must be scenario-driven. My team develops generic tabletop exercises for every division on a quarterly basis. These tabletops allow us to validate and improve all aspects of our emergency response plan.

An old business axiom says you must have the right product, at the right time and at the right place. Emergency response planning is no different. There is no greater product that security can provide to an organization than a life safety plan.
