Evacuation Planning in Poland and Ukraine
PLANS BUILT ON REAL EVACUATIONS
Since February 2022 our teams have completed over 250 evacuation missions in Ukraine. We use that experience to prepare plans that work when roads are closed, phones are down and decisions must be made quickly.
What every plan includes:
• Clear triggers for when to move
• Primary and alternative routes
• Assembly points, transport and responsibilities
• Communication that works when networks fail
NDA available before any details are shared.
COMPANIES AND OFFICES
An office in an unstable region needs more than a fire drill. We prepare evacuation and relocation plans for your sites and staff, and make sure the people responsible know exactly what to do.
Within the service:
• Evacuation and relocation plans for each site
• Staff lists, contact trees and accountability
• Coordination with your crisis management team
• Exercises to test the plan with your people
FAMILIES AND PRIVATE CLIENTS
Families living or travelling in the region need a plan that fits their routines, homes and children. We prepare a discreet plan that every member of the household can follow.
Within the service:
• A family plan for home, school and travel
• Grab bags, documents and essential supplies
• Safe locations and routes out of the area
• A trusted contact who can activate support
EMERGENCY RESPONSE
When a situation turns, a plan must become action. Our teams can support the move itself, with transport, protection and coordination from our Operations Centre in Warsaw.
Within the service:
• Activation and monitoring of the situation
• Secure transport and protection on the move
• Coordination with medical support if needed
• Reception and onward travel on arrival
EVACUATION PLANNING: HOW IT WORKS
Each plan is built around your people and your locations. Final scope and budget are agreed in writing once we understand who needs to move, from where and under what threats.
What a plan can include:
• Threat review: what could force you to move
• Triggers: when to prepare, when to leave
• Routes: primary and alternative, with timings
• Transport: vehicles, drivers and fuel
• Communications: when networks fail
• People: roles, contact lists and accountability
• Exercise: testing the plan with your team
How an engagement begins:
• Step 1. A private conversation, under NDA
• Step 2. Review of people, sites and threats
• Step 3. A written proposal with scope and budget
• Step 4. The plan, delivered and explained to your team
• Step 5. Exercises and regular updates
To prepare a proposal, we ask for:
• Who needs to be covered, and where
• Sites, homes and regular routes
• Your current plans, if any
