Venue of Experience:
Our experience in rapidly responding to clients' crisis situations has occurred in North America and abroad.  These events have ranged from time sensitive intelligence gathering related to terrorist activity, to managing the front line protection during labor disputes, responding to product adulteration events and preparing a strategy to end a lengthy Waco-style siege involving the takeover of a building by dissidents where many acts of violence were occurring.
Our Methodology:
Each crisis event we have been involved with has been distinctively different, with the exception of violent labor disputes.  In all cases, however, we have provided action and/or input based on the variety of our past experiences.  All our clients in this area have felt our assistance proved to be of great benefit.  In some cases, we have been credited with ending the exposure offered during such an event.  We have no specific methodology in these cases because each event is comprised of a variety of components that combine to make each one unique.  We have only had the dubious opportunity of responding to one serious crisis where we had previously prepared a contingency plan.  In that case, while every component of the plan wasn't specifically applicable, the basics were in place to insure a rapid structured response.  Rather than starting from scratch, we were able to modify and fine tune the elements of the contingency plan to suit the specific situation.
Crisis Event Response Requests We Turn Down:
We do not accept any consulting requests or similar work, if we believe we are not capable of providing any real assistance.  Since good intentioned, but naïve recommendations or action, not based on training or experience could often result in loss of life in these crisis events, we will not become involved in anything where we do not feel qualified.  In other cases we have turned down such work, based on inappropriate actions previously taken by the prospect requesting our services.  One such case involved a prospect's past response to picketers during a labor dispute.  After quickly researching the problem, we decided that our reputation would suffer by becoming involved in any way with this business.  However, in another case, after consideration, we did accept a consulting request in a case which the U.S. Government should have been handling, but had shied away from, due to the questionable, but unrelated, activities of one of the parties taking our client's side.
Rapid Response:
Crisis events usually arrive without notice and we are geared for rapid response.  In one case, a Michigan based consultant en route from Florida to Michigan, switched planes at a hub and headed to a breaking event in the West.  In another instance, a consultant returning to Michigan from Great Britain, diverted at the Boston point of entry in and proceeded on to a Southern state where a crisis was unfolding.
