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.
Synergy’s experienced planners support communities and organizations nationwide with practical, actionable emergency management plans. Our work includes hazard mitigation plans, community wildfire protection plans, emergency operations plans, recovery plans, continuity plans, and other preparedness and resilience planning efforts. We help clients meet current federal and state requirements while developing plans that reflect local risks, capabilities, and priorities.
Our approach is collaborative and community-focused. We bring together government agencies, businesses, nonprofits, community organizations, and the public to develop clear, usable plans grounded in local knowledge. Our planners are experienced with the National Incident Management System (NIMS), National Response Framework, National Preparedness Goal, and other federal preparedness guidance. The goal is not simply to produce a compliant document, but to create a practical roadmap to reduce risk and strengthen resilience.
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, meet 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.
