Advisory and Consulting Services

Security, crisis and resilience advisory for growing organisations

We support organisations that don’t maintain in-house security or crisis teams - providing structured, practical advisory to strengthen governance, clarify roles and improve crisis readiness.

Services include custom crisis management planning, governance framework development, executive and board advisory, crisis exercises, and independent post-incident review facilitation.

Our experience spans Big 4 risk consulting, corporate security leadership and high-threat environments - including Afghanistan, Papua New Guinea, and the Solomon Islands. This perspective ensures advisory support grounded in operational reality, not theory.
