Public and Private…You Can’t Have One Without the Other

Event: DRI Collegiate Conference - Pace University - Oct. 17, 2018

Author: Ira Tannenbaum

Planning anything in a vacuum is virtually impossible. Resiliency and continuity planning – especially searching out dependencies and preparing for them – highlights the critical connections between the sectors. Various models exist to bring us together but these partnerships, like plans, are dynamic and cannot be put on a shelf to be “referenced” when necessary. In order for everyone to be successful these mutually beneficial relationships need to be nurtured and maintained on a regular basis.

Event: DRI Collegiate Conference - Pace University - Oct. 17, 2018

Author: Dr. Joseph Ryan

In the wake of the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001, the 9/11 Commission Report revealed that this country was not prepared for such a horrific tragedy, and in hindsight, for any other major humanmade/natural disaster. Since that date, the world has seen numerous tragedies from mass shootings: Newtown, Connecticut, wildfires, tornadoes (more than $300 billion in losses in 2017), superstorms, hurricanes (Puerto Rico), and other catastrophes. It is now 2018 and we need to assess our preparedness not only to major events, but every day activities such as crime, vehicle accidents, etc. This presentation will focus on where we are today, and where we need to be in the future. Specifically, the will be focus on the 2010 National Security Strategy for Achieving Resilience Through Public Private Partnerships (PPP). PPP is the logical strategy for a democratic society in that it recognizes two things: the government cannot do it alone, and preparedness requires each of us to be responsible to the degree of our individual capacities. In this session, you will learn about emergency operations center (EOC) activation criteria, stakeholder identification and prioritization during critical incidents, in addition to returning to normal operations while managing recovery
