Operational Coherence Consulting

Formulaic, processual, prosaic, and best practice-based approaches are vital throughout the disaster risk management cycle and are an integral part of a whole system approach to addressing disruption. Recognizing the essential contributions of larger firms, Operational Coherence adopts a complementary and additive approach, advancing consulting through the creation of new knowledge, thoughtful reflection, meticulous care, and innovative tools and techniques designed to address unique challenges.

As the focus on resilience and adaptation continues, the reliance on established best practices and universal processes remains vital. However, Operational Coherence builds on these foundations with custom methodologies and tools founded on transforming research into actionable guidance on outreach initiatives, products, and concepts that progress from ideation to early adoption. Operational Coherence provides custom consulting on a wide range of public safety issues with a focus on emergency services and wildfire management.
