Resiliency and Emergency Response

In a swiftly-changing world, planning for resilience—the capacity to respond and adapt to challenges both expected and unexpected, from climate change and natural disasters to economic and technological trends—is essential for effective planning.

From wide-ranging resilience frameworks to targeted studies, we offer clients expert advice on how they can operate better under today’s conditions and prepare for tomorrow’s shocks and stresses.

Our team also has extensive experience helping public and private clients address unprecedentedly complex challenges in the wake of disaster. During a crisis, we go to work immediately to ensure efficient and safe movement of people and goods. We have also helped governments around North America optimize operations and administrative structures for crisis response.
