What's Included

Seven deliverables.
One clear picture.

The Assessment is not a checklist exercise. It's a structured investigation into how your organization actually manages risk — and what stands between you and a genuinely resilient program.

01

Risk Maturity Audit

Full evaluation against our proven 5-level framework. You'll know exactly which level you're at and what the path to the next level requires.

02

Threat & Vulnerability Review

Assessment of your current threat identification processes, vulnerability documentation, and event-by-event risk posture — against industry standards.

03

Emergency Plan Gap Analysis

Line-by-line review of your existing emergency plan — or a documented gap identification if no plan exists. Most venues have more gaps than they realize.

04

Incident Management Evaluation

How are incidents currently reported, tracked, and learned from? We assess your system — or the absence of one — against operational best practice.

05

Training & Competency Review

Are your staff actually trained, or just documented as trained? We review records, interview key staff, and assess real-world competency against your plan.

06

Written Gap Analysis Report

A clear, prioritized written report with specific findings, risk ratings, and actionable recommendations ordered by impact and effort.

07

Executive Briefing & Roadmap

A facilitated presentation of findings to your leadership team — with a multi-year roadmap showing the path from where you are to where you need to be.

How It Works

60–90 days.
Four clear phases.

The Assessment is designed to be thorough without being disruptive. We work around your event calendar, interview only the people who matter, and keep your team's time investment minimal.

Week 1–2

Discovery & Scoping

Intake call, document collection, calendar alignment. We gather what exists — plans, records, org charts — before we set foot on site.

Week 3–6

On-Site & Remote Assessment

Site walkthrough, staff interviews, document review, observation of operations. We evaluate what's documented versus what's actually practiced.

Week 7–10

Analysis & Report Writing

Findings are synthesized, rated by severity and impact, and structured into a prioritized roadmap your team can act on immediately.

Week 11–13

Executive Briefing

Facilitated presentation to your leadership team. Questions answered, priorities aligned, next steps confirmed. Your board can see the full picture.

Who This Is For

Any venue ready for an honest look at where it stands.

From a 500-seat performing arts center to a 60,000-seat stadium — if you're not certain your risk program matches your exposure, this is where to start.

🎭

No emergency plan yet

You know you need one. The Assessment tells you exactly what it needs to contain and why.

📋

Plan exists, but untested

Documents on the shelf but nobody's trained on them? We'll show you exactly where the gaps are.

🏛

New leadership taking over

Inheriting a program? Understand what you're actually working with before you commit to it.

📊

Board wants accountability

The Assessment gives you a third-party validated risk posture you can present with confidence.

🏆

Pursuing Safety Act designation

The Assessment is the mandatory first step on the DHS Safety Act certification pathway.

📅

Major event on the horizon

Upcoming high-profile event? Know your gaps before the date arrives — not after.

"Most venues think they have a safety program. The Assessment tells them what they actually have — and that gap is almost always larger than anyone expected. That's not a failure. It's the first honest conversation."
— Wayne Middleton, Founder · Reliance Risk
