Preparedness

Even with the best intentions in place, no community can prepare for everything alone. The work that one puts in ahead of time through planning, training, and exercises provides the foundation and presence of mind to respond to and recover from any disaster event. Synergy provides a trusted framework for ensuring that your community is rigorously planned, trained and exercised for all foreseen contingencies so that when disaster strikes, your teams can respond calmly, confidently, and capably.

Our experienced planners have provided emergency management planning services to a diverse range of organizations nationwide. Synergy ensures that your community’s plans comply with the latest industry standards and best practices.

Our planners are well-versed in the various Presidential Directives and the Policy Doctrine of operations and preparedness from the Department of Homeland Security’s (DSH) National Incident Management System (NIMS), National Response Plan, National Infrastructure Protection Plan, and National Preparedness Guidelines. We strive to engage the whole community - government, for-profit, non‐profit, and the public – as we help develop true community plans.

Integral to The Synergy Way is our promise to leave you more capable after our engagement than when we began. Our training programs are efficient and effective because we custom tailor them to each community and audience. Synergy offers an array of training methods that honor different learning styles and time constraints including, but not limited to:

  • Face-to-Face Training
  • Regional Trainings
  • Webinars
  • Online training series
  • Conference calls (Video)
  • Recorded Video Tutorials
  • Brown Bag Lunches

Exercising plans greatly enhances your organization’s preparedness and resiliency. With the Synergy Team at your side, you can be confident that your disaster response and recovery efforts are well-coordinated, meets the latest industry standards, and have been tested for optimal deployment in the event disaster strikes.

We develop and coordinate exercises to provide practice for prevention, vulnerability reduction, response, and recovery capabilities with our team of Master Exercise Practitioners (MEP) and experienced HSEEP providers. We are constantly developing innovative, proven methods in our field.
