We've All Seen It Happen
Are you ready?
We’ve all seen it happen. Some organizations manage emergencies and disasters more efficiently and effectively than others.
- 2007: San Diego, California Fires. The evacuation and sheltering of 500,000 evacuees (the largest in California’s history) looked easy as thousands gathered at QualComm Stadium.
- 1999: Egyptair Flight 990. The jetliner crashed into the Atlantic Ocean killing 13 crewmembers and 203 passengers. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) managed the response and the investigation of that tragedy seamlessly while coordinating with a multitude of federal (and often international) agencies using a single voice in talking to the public.
- 2001: Anthrax attacks. Multiple federal agencies sent multiple messages to the public during that response and investigation, creating confusion and distrust.

Good Plans Deliver Good Results
A thoughtful and deliberate planning process that includes all stakeholders is critical to building an effective concept of operations or CONOPS. An effective CONOPS not only describes the roles, responsibilities and relationships of key stakeholders, but it also presents the major planning assumptions, constraints, and scenarios under which it will function. An effective CONOPS is the foundational document from which to build a successful organization, system, or incident management program for any event be it natural, criminal, or accidental.
CONOPS Consulting partners with its public and private sector clients to rediscover the benefits of a deliberate and thoughtful planning process that includes the right stakeholders: from the leadership to the end user as well as external partners.
