Our professionalism in responding to a wide range of corporate emergencies is broadly and enthusiastically acknowledged.
DEVELOPMENT OF CONTINGENCY PLANS: We are prepared to assist corporations in the formulation of crisis-management plans for kidnappings and other extortions, bomb-control guidelines and procedures for evacuating employees from unstable areas. Contingency plans originated by our staff benefit from our considerable experience in dealing with emergencies and are noteworthy for their practicality. As part of the planning process we routinely meet with crisis-management teams to brief them - from our experience - on the critical decisions they would face in an emergency.
THREAT EVALUATIONS: Our consultants travel at a moment’s notice to evaluate threats levied by political or labor movements, or disgruntled or dismissed employees, calling upon psychiatric resources when necessary. They also arrange for the protection of the individual or asset at hazard.
HOSTAGE RECOVERIES: Our 24-hour availability assures immediate response to a kidnapping, and we are prepared to advise and assist the victim corporation through every aspect of the recovery process. Working under corporate decision-makers, we propose strategies, interface with law-enforcement authorities, handle negotiations, and procure, protect and even deliver ransom funds – always with the objective of assuring the survival of the hostage.
EXTORTION: We also are called upon to deal with monetary demands levied in connection with threats to harm an employee, damage a critical corporate resource, including a database or website, or contaminate a consumable product. Again, our reaction is immediate, our experience substantial and our paramount concern the protection of the client corporation’s personnel and assets.
EMERGENCY EVACUATIONS: We are ready to travel on short notice to assist in evacuating employees from areas that have turned hazardous. If necessary we are prepared to employ unconventional extraction methodologies.
OTHER CRISES: Multinationals increasingly call upon our intelligence, protective and negotiating expertise, and our superb contacts with police services to help them through other emergency situations, such as disputes with violence-prone trade unions or fringe movements. Companies often find themselves unprepared to cope with those who would play hardball, especially in unfamiliar foreign climes. We help level the playing field.
