Emergency Preparedness Partnerships

What Emergency Preparedness Partnerships does

Emergency Preparedness Partnerships (EPP) is a privately-held, niche professional services firm founded in 2001 and headquartered in Hammonton, New Jersey, that provides emergency preparedness consulting exclusively to electric and gas utilities. The firm delivers three core service lines: Plan Review and Development (emergency response plans, storm plans, incident command plans, business continuity plans, security and vulnerability assessments), Exercises and Drills (tabletop, functional, and full-scale HSEEP-aligned simulations), and Emergency Plan Training (Incident Command System, Emergency Operations Center, liaison, and emergency communications modules). Engagements are sold on a fee-for-service basis, either à la carte or as comprehensive multi-year partnerships, with quote-based pricing initiated through a free consultation.

EPP's service delivery model is built on the expertise of its associates — most of whom are former utility executives and operational managers from Conectiv, Atlantic Electric, Pepco Holdings, Baltimore Gas and Electric, and Orange and Rockland Utilities — with each associate bringing 15–43+ years of direct experience (averaging ~40 years) and the team collectively offering over 200 years of utility emergency management background. There is no proprietary software platform or technology product; service delivery is entirely human-led. The go-to-market is consultative and direct, supported by industry conference sponsorships (notably 12+ consecutive years at NJEPA), professional association involvement, and an active content marketing presence via a 118-article blog and segmented email newsletter. Customers are not publicly named, but the firm states it has worked with 'dozens' of energy and other utilities across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast United States.

Core offering

Emergency Preparedness Partnerships provides emergency planning, training, exercises/drills, security and vulnerability assessments, and incident debriefing services to electric and gas utility clients. The firm supports utilities in developing and updating emergency plans, training personnel in Incident Command System (ICS), Emergency Operations Center (EOC), and liaison functions, facilitating tabletop/functional/full-scale exercises, and conducting post-incident reviews.

Product overview

Emergency Preparedness Partnerships (EPP) offers a portfolio of consulting services for utility companies, organized around three core service pillars: Planning (plan review, development, security assessments, and incident debriefing), Exercises and Drills (tabletop, functional, and full-scale simulations), and Emergency Plan Training (modular a la carte training modules including ICS, EOC, and Liaison training). The offering is a services-based portfolio rather than a unified software platform, delivered by utility industry veterans with an average of 38-40 years of experience. EPP works with clients via comprehensive partnerships or on an a la carte basis, using a modular approach to customize solutions for each organization's unique culture and needs.

Broad incumbents

• Tetra Tech: Global consulting and engineering firm with EHS, emergency planning, and resilience practices serving utilities and government clients — comparable in addressing utility preparedness needs but with a far broader environmental and engineering portfolio.
• AECOM: Global infrastructure consulting firm with a substantial EHS and emergency management practice serving utilities and public agencies — competes for the same utility emergency preparedness and resilience engagements EPP targets, but as part of a much broader portfolio.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Major consulting firm with a dedicated emergency management and civil preparedness practice serving federal, state, and utility-sector clients on planning, training, and exercises — overlaps with EPP's offerings at much greater scale.
• Leidos: Large government and infrastructure services firm with significant emergency management, FEMA, and critical infrastructure protection practices — competes for large-scale utility and government preparedness contracts that overlap with EPP's niche.
• ICF International: Professional services firm with deep emergency management, homeland security, and critical infrastructure resilience practices serving government and utility clients — comparable in offering scope but materially larger and more diversified than EPP.
• ERM (Environmental Resources Management): Global sustainability and EHS consulting firm with utility-sector emergency preparedness and resilience advisory services — comparable in addressing utility risk and preparedness, but at much larger scale and broader scope.

Emerging players

• GHD: Global engineering, architecture, and EHS consultancy with utility-sector emergency planning and resilience services — increasingly overlapping with EPP's utility preparedness niche, particularly in water/wastewater and power.

Direct peers

• Hagerty Consulting: Emergency management and homeland security consulting firm serving government and private-sector clients with planning, training, and exercise services — closely overlapping EPP's preparedness planning, training, and HSEEP-aligned exercise portfolio, though broader in client verticals.
• IEM (International Emergency Management): International emergency management consulting firm providing planning, training, exercises, and disaster response support to public and private-sector clients, including critical infrastructure operators — directly comparable to EPP's preparedness and exercise services for utilities.
• Witt O'Brien's (Accenture): Emergency management and crisis response consultancy (now part of Accenture) specializing in preparedness planning, exercises, and incident response for critical infrastructure and government clients — directly comparable to EPP's core service offering at significantly larger scale.
