Drill & Exercise (Policies, Plans, and Procedures)

Before any plan can be considered complete, it must be validated.  A plan drill or exercise is a "practice response/recovery." It allows us to help you validate the strategies, procedures, and team structures that are documented in your plans and procedures.  A Drill or Exercise tests the essential components of your program, people, equipment, and facilities.  This can be accomplished via a mock disaster scenario or by a simple tabletop drill (roundtable environment.)  It is recommended that your teams participate fully in the drill and exercise effort to validate team structure and responsibilities.
 
During this phase, our consultant serves as an advisor to your company leaders, and assists with the development of the drill or exercise documentation.  During the drill and/or exercise itself, CRA's EM/BC consultant serves as an auditor and publishes the results of the drill or exercise in an After Action Report (lessons learned) that will be part of the deliverable.
