PLANS
When an emergency strikes, your organization needs more than good intentions — it needs a written, practiced plan. Franco Training Solutions develops custom Emergency Operations Plans built around your facility, your people, and the threats you actually face.
A PLAN ON PAPER SAVES LIVES IN PRACTICE
Most organizations assume they'll figure it out when something happens. But emergencies are chaotic, fast-moving, and unforgiving. Without a written plan, people freeze, communication breaks down, and critical decisions get delayed — with real consequences.
An Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) gives your organization a clear, tested framework for responding to any emergency — from active threats and fires to medical crises and natural disasters. It defines who does what, how information flows, and what happens next at every stage of an incident.
Franco Training Solutions develops EOPs grounded in 19 years of first responder experience — not generic templates. Every plan is custom-built for your facility, your staff, and the specific threats your organization faces.
"AN EMERGENCY IS NOT THE TIME TO FIGURE OUT YOUR PLAN — IT'S THE TIME TO EXECUTE IT."
- Required by OSHA for most employers
- Reduces liability and legal exposure
- Improves insurance standing
- Builds staff confidence and readiness

THREAT & HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
We identify the specific threats and hazards your organization faces — from active threats and natural disasters to medical emergencies and utility failures — and prioritize them by likelihood and impact.
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Every member of your team needs to know exactly what to do when an emergency occurs. We define clear roles, chains of command, and decision-making authority so there is no confusion under pressure.
EVACUATION & SHELTER-IN-PLACE PROCEDURES
Detailed, facility-specific evacuation routes, assembly points, and shelter-in-place protocols — mapped to your actual building layout and tailored to the populations you serve.
COMMUNICATION PROTOCOLS
Internal and external communication plans covering staff notification, public address, law enforcement coordination, and family reunification — so information flows clearly during a crisis.
DOCUMENTATION & COMPLIANCE
A written EOP that meets OSHA, FEMA, and applicable state requirements — providing legal protection for your organization and a clear reference document for staff training and drills.
TRAINING & DRILL INTEGRATION
Your EOP is only as good as the people who execute it. We integrate your plan with hands-on training and tabletop exercises so staff can respond confidently when it matters most.
OUR EOP DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
01
NEEDS ASSESSMENT
We begin by understanding your organization — your facility, your people, your current plans (if any), and the specific threats you face. This forms the foundation of a plan built for your reality.
02
PLAN DEVELOPMENT
Working alongside your leadership team, we draft a comprehensive EOP covering all identified threat scenarios, response procedures, communication protocols, and staff responsibilities.
03
REVIEW & REFINEMENT
We review the draft with your team, incorporate feedback, and refine the plan until it accurately reflects your organization's capabilities and culture. No generic templates — every plan is custom.
04
TRAINING & IMPLEMENTATION
We train your staff on the completed plan, conduct tabletop exercises to stress-test it, and provide ongoing support as your organization grows and your plan needs updating.
PLANS BUILT FROM 19 YEARS IN THE FIELD
Our EOPs aren't written from a textbook — they're built from nearly two decades of first responder experience responding to real emergencies. We know how incidents unfold, where plans fail, and what organizations actually need to survive a crisis. That experience is built into every plan we develop.
EOPs FOR EVERY ORGANIZATION
Every organization faces unique threats and has unique needs. We tailor every Emergency Operations Plan to your specific facility, staff, and risk environment.
