We work closely with department and tactical supervisors to design customized scenarios that challenge and develop tactical teams. Using a diverse range of props, force-on-force marking weapons, sound effects, and costumed role players, we create highly realistic environments tailored to the specific jurisdiction of the agency. Our scenarios can vary in scale, from smaller, situational exercises with multiple repetitions to large-scale, full-scale operations involving hostage barricades or major critical incidents. These large-scale events require the entire agency to work in coordination with the tactical team, providing an immersive training experience that prepares responders for the complexities of real-world situations.
