Tip of the Spear is a small business located in Central Pennsylvania. The company was founded in 2014 to provide consulting services to area schools and institutions. Our mission is to present an All-Hazards approach to Crisis Management and Domain/ Intelligence awareness. With over 23 years of service with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), I provide outcome based solutions based on my experience in addressing real world challenges. The foundational concepts of Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response and Recovery are introduced and actioned in compliance with local, state and federal guidelines. We emphasize the importance of information sharing, intelligence driven decision making, and domain & situational awareness as key tenets of our programs. We employ the overall frameworks of the National Incident Management System (NIMS), Incident Command System (ICS) and the National Intelligence Community protocols and processes. By establishing these frameworks, our customers will become an integral part of the greater Homeland Security Community.
