Emergency Management

 
In life, success is the preferred outcome. In emergency management, success should be the only outcome. You can’t afford to uncover faults in your preparedness plans mid-crisis. We recommend any plan adheres to these guidelines. 
  1. Your objectives are measured
  2. Your plans are tested
  3. Your personnel are trained
  4. Your program has been exercised

Critical Infrastructure Protection

Planning for response and recovery is only half the solution; the other half is preventing disruption and protecting infrastructure. 

 

MSA can develop, update, or maintain your Critical Infrastructure Protection program, from risk and vulnerability assessment, gap analysis, and strategic recommendations to implementation plans, project management, and coordination with multiple jurisdictions. 

 

Emergency Communications 

Events of the past decade highlighted the need for a rapid, two-way mass emergency notification system. Our solution leverages strategic partnerships to provide the ability to send messages on multiple platforms with the click of the button. 

 

MSALERT is built for the enterprise, spanning the entire industry spectrum—including local/state/federal government, higher education, financial services, transportation, energy, and healthcare.

 

Occupant Emergency Planning

An Occupant Emergency Plan (OEP) minimizes the negative impact of emergencies to personnel and property. We provide guidance and support through every phase of the OEP development process, using industry best-practices and collaborating with local first responders, law enforcement, public works entities, and other building tenants.

 

Pandemic and Crisis Communications 

MSA uses a multilayered, all-hazards approach to Public Health and Risk Communications. This approach creates a flexible, scalable preparedness framework, allowing your organization to adapt and respond to new strains by modifying existing protocols. Additionally, we provide clients with hazard-specific guidance for unique disruptions, such as the 2009 H1N1 Pandemic Influenza. 


MSA has supported agencies such as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in developing Points of Distribution (POD) centers for dispensing mass prophylaxis antibiotics, vaccinations, and personal protective equipment (PPE) like face masks, antiseptic hand wash.

 

Risk and Impact Assessments

Our clients provide a multitude of services to the American people and can not afford to wait for a crisis to determine which services must be continued during an emergency. The Homeland Security & Emergency Management team exceeds federal continuity requirements by conducting risk and impact assessments using an industry proven and client customized approach.
