Security Risk Consultancy
Crisis preparedness
A preparedness review examines an organisation's security plans, procedures and escalation arrangements, and identifies what is missing and what needs strengthening.
Who it is for
Organisations holding crisis, incident or escalation plans that have never been tested against the threats they actually face.
What it solves
I review preparedness for single sites through to multi-site and international operations, against the threats the organisation actually faces.

Why Daniel
Experience behind the advice.
Twenty-seven years in security, risk and protective operations, including sustained civil unrest, humanitarian field security and multi-site commercial operations where escalation had to work while the operation ran.
Experience in operational security planning, contingency arrangements and security coordination in demanding environments.
Relevant experience includes:
- Operational contingency and escalation procedures
- Security communications and reporting arrangements
- Planning for disruption to personnel movements and security operations
- Coordination between security teams and external stakeholders
- Formal Level 5 study in business risk and crisis management
DSA's focus is on reviewing security preparedness, identifying procedural weaknesses and advising on practical readiness measures.
DSA does not provide crisis management or crisis response services.
The advice is independent. Daniel Smith Advisory does not supply guarding, install systems or take commission on anything recommended, so a recommendation only appears if it is needed.
