Strategic Review
This provides governments with a strategy. It ensures those involved in the day
to day battle against terrorism know what their role is and how to respond to an
incident. It is a blueprint which ensures consistency and focus. g7 and
its associates have designed or are close to the architects of US and UK policy
makers.
Audit and test
Existing and new systems need to be tested and those involved have to practise
their role. Not only do systems have to work in crisis but they need also to be
audited to ensure money is not wasted and that they are fit for purpose, and
there is no complacency in their use. g7 has the expertise to test the
technology and the procedures.
Intra-government communications
Communications between rescue services and those maintaining public order
are often hampered by communication systems that are not properly integrated.
g7 has considerable experience in large scale IT and communication systems
to test existing communication systems.
Inter-departmental agency
State leaders need central governmental institutions they can rely on to provide
up to the minute assessments and advice. g7 can bring together people who
have run or established such agencies (Homeland Security department in the US,
JTAC and others in the UK).
Command, Control and Communication
In any crisis responsibilities must be clear and unambiguous. g7 has the
people who can write operating procedures for all those who may be involved in
managing a crisis.
Education and Training
People involved in counter-terrorism have to be trained in the necessary skills
and need to practise the emergency procedures. This gives the government
resilience and confidence in handling any crisis. Furthermore there is an
opportunity to build an educational centre in the Middle East which will provide
scholars and practitioners alike to learn and disseminate to other governments
the state-of-the-art knowledge and expertise. g7 believes training is at
the heart of its activities and has considerable experience in this field.
