PPS’ past performance clearly shows our expertise and commitment to quality exercise programs, but we are committed to moving into the future of multi-element incident exercises.

The following are sample projects from 2001 to present:

Awarded this contract to PPS based on our experience, quality of service and overall value. The contract is a single year award for up to five exercises in that year. The exercises will involve a threat-based scenario with chemical release for local communities in the New England Region. The exercises are designed with input from the local design teams to meet their exercise requirements. We are working closely with Contract Officer’s Technical Representative and the FEMA Representative to the exercises to ensure their and the participating local communities’ needs are met.

PPS designed, developed and conducted a 1-day HSEEP Security Tabletop Exercise and Workshop for the HOVENSA Refinery in Christiansted, St. Croix in the US Virgin Islands. The day prior to the exercise, PPS conducted ICS training for two separate groups of HOVENSA personnel. During the design phase of this exercise, PPS facilitated teleconference design meetings with the facility personnel in an effort to minimize costs. This exercise involved over 40 participants from the HOVENSA Refinery, Federal representatives from the US Coast Guard Marine Safety Office in San Juan Puerto Rico, FBI Representatives from St. Croix and San Juan PR, DHS/Border Patrol, and territorial Law Enforcement Representatives from the US Virgin Islands. PPS provided 3 technical support personnel to design, develop and conduct the exercise, and compile exercise evaluation data. Upon completion of this exercise, PPS delivered the Final Exercise Report and provided all required HSEEP documentation to the HOVENSA Refinery.

From July through December 2004, PPS designed, developed and executed 2 PREP exercises, 1 SPCC exercise, and 2 PREP/Security Exercises for six facilities in Texas, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. The exercises only included those personnel in Exelon but were designed to incorporate role playing of outside agencies while Exelon and their facilities developed their response structure and tested the effectiveness of the structure in a non-threatening environment. Two exercises integrated Oil Spill and Security exercise and met both the PREP and HSEEP exercise requirements. Reports for these two exercises met both the HSEEP and the PREP report format requirements. The rest of the exercises met the PREP requirements for Oil Spill Worst Case Discharge exercises and the PREP reporting requirements.

Recognized our experience, expertise, and commitment with the award their contract for unannounced PREP exercises and the integration of the new security measure guidelines into that program. The contract, DTRS56-02-C-0002, was a cost plus multi-year award for approximately 1.4 million dollars. We have to date conducted 3 exercises and have 5 more exercise scheduled before then end of the fiscal year. We developed the prototype formats for these exercise, all of which incorporate security aspects. We continue to work closely with the Contract Office Technical Representative to refine and advance these prototypes. Recently OPS has exercised their option to renew the contract for another year

Recognized our forward thinking approach to multi-element incident exercises. The Coast Guard has engaged our services five times within the past year specifically for the more complex exercises. We developed an exercise/workshop to provide a mechanism for them to explore the new MARSEC conditions. It was a one-day event, scenario driven (terrorist threat/chemical release) to examine the new security levels and measures to be implemented. We developed 3 mass migration exercises. This unique exercise sequence of exercises progressed from a totally internal (Coast Guard only) exercise, to the last exercise, which explored the new Security Task Force Concept from the Department of Homeland Security. Over 20 different Federal, State, and Local agencies participated. Finally, we produced 2 high capacity passenger vessel (cruise ship/ferry) exercises. The first was conducted in St. Thomas, USVI and dealt with the issues resulting from an incident that occurs in foreign waters and drifts into US waters. The second was a terrorist generated marine casualty involving a cruise ship entering Key West, Fl. This was a complex exercise involving over 3500 passengers and crew from the simulated vessel. The issues of crew composition, (Indonesian, Pakistani, Croatian, Italian), passenger make up of over 52 nationalities, were coupled with the impact of a continuing security threat throughout the industry and an oil spill resulting from the explosion.

We recently designed and executed a one-day exercise/workshop sponsored by TSA and hosted by AMTRAK and the Union Station Redevelopment Corporation in Washington, DC. It consisted of three on site design meetings culminating in an exercise that involved over 25 Federal and District Agencies and the relevant industry organizations. The scenario involved a terrorist generated explosion aboard a passenger train at Union Station. The exercise progressed through all three modules. Prevention, which addressed an elevated security level and implementation of additional security measures, Incident Management, which addressed the multi-agency response to a significant casualty incident and the associated disruption of the northeast rail corridor, and Restoration, which dealt with the issues of restoring service in the short and long term.

PPS and our staff have been clear leaders in exercise design and execution both in the commercial and government arena. Our teaming with Transas USA has brought exercises and incident simulation to new heights. Immediately upon completion of the major upgrade, PISCES 1.5, plans were on the drawing board for a complete version upgrade. Specifications for PISCES 2 for outlined and work commenced immediately.

Transas USA, supported by PPS was awarded a major contract with California Maritime Academy for the installation of a complete Crisis Management System with both 2 and 3 dimensional incident simulation, exercise capabilities, and training. This award has again added to PISCES 2’s wide range of capabilities. Providing a core GIS based simulation system coupled with modeling tools for simulations of, oil spills, chemical releases, explosions, search and rescue, and more. The system is evolving into an incident simulation and exercise system for any type of incident. The addition of street maps, topographical maps, and aerial views to the already impressive nautical chart base makes PISCES 2 applicable anywhere in the US. For that matter the system is applicable worldwide.

Recently purchased the advance version of PISCES 2. Both PPS and Transas USA have the proven capabilities of project management, on time delivery, and customer satisfaction.
