Terrorism Prevention / Law Enforcement Exercises

GP understands the unique issues facing law enforcement when it comes to natural and manmade emergencies, and the need to continually evolve to face the terrorist threat. GP's exercise team has law enforcement experience at the local, county, state, and federal levels. We are sensitive to your concerns, especially those that address staffing and funding issues. As a result, we focus our exercises on identifying efficiencies so that you can do more with less.

As the War on Terror has progressed, a new emphasis is being placed on the prevention of attacks, not just the response to them. GP helps you build or improve your capabilities in this evolving role and streamlines your processes so that you're able to achieve your goals with limited resources. Our terrorism prevention exercises offer a cost-effective method for examining all aspects of your intelligence operations—from initial detection to protective measures.

With realistic scenarios and supporting documentation, each exercise is developed around the unique characteristics of your jurisdiction. We do not modify existing scenarios and attempt to make them fit your needs. Instead, we work with you to create an exercise that is built around the specific threats and challenges that your exercise planning team chooses. GP's unique approach to terrorism prevention exercises is the result of continuous refinement, using lessons learned from jurisdictions all over the country and guidance from the US Department of Homeland Security. GP actively shares what we learn with others through the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP), and our exercises, while uniquely designed for you, adhere to this proven methodology.

GP's approach to developing terrorism prevention exercises formed the foundation for the US Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) V standard for discussion-based prevention exercises. Our approach is the result of continuous refinement using lessons learned from jurisdictions all over the country and guidance from the US Department of Homeland Security.
