Built for real pressure

The Crisis Department helps organisations prepare for and build resilience to disruption across Asia-Pacific. We are headquartered in Singapore and work through a curated network of crisis management specialists.

We deliver frameworks, training, and testing that are practical and pressure-tested. No binders that sit on shelves. No generic templates. Plans your team can actually follow when things go wrong.

Our network brings deep experience managing corporate crises, operational disruptions, and organisational security challenges. That collective expertise shapes everything we deliver.

Three things, done properly

Every service is delivered through our network of crisis management specialists. Practical, deployable, and tested under pressure.

Fractional Security Director

Senior security leadership without the full-time headcount. We embed a seasoned security director into your organisation on a fractional basis to build your security posture, develop policies, and lead your crisis preparedness programme.

Crisis Preparedness

We build your crisis management framework from the ground up. Team structures, escalation protocols, decision trees, communication plans, and business continuity strategies designed so your people know what to do before a crisis hits.

Crisis Ready Check

Specialists, not generalists

The Crisis Department works through a curated network of crisis management professionals across Asia-Pacific. Each specialist brings hands-on experience managing real incidents, not academic theory.

When you engage us, we match the right people to your situation. The right industry knowledge, the right regional experience, and the right seniority for what you need. No bench, no overhead, no bloat.

This model means you get senior-level expertise without the cost of building an in-house crisis team, and the flexibility to scale up or down as your needs change.

Practical by design

Everything we build is designed to work under pressure, not just look good in a report.

01

Assess the Reality

We start by understanding what you actually have in place, not what you think you have. An honest assessment of your gaps, risks, and current capabilities.

02

Build What Works

Plans, protocols, and frameworks tailored to your organisation, your industry, and your risk profile. Documents your team can actually follow under stress.

03

Test Under Pressure

We run realistic exercises and scenarios to find weaknesses before a real crisis does. Then we fix them, train your team, and test again until it holds.

Let's talk

Whether you need a fractional security director, want to build your crisis preparedness framework, or want to test your readiness with Crisis Ready Check.
