Since 2021, Coordinated Consulting Services (CCS) has been an outstanding and trusted partner to La Paz County. Their team has worked closely with us on various projects, including the development of our Health Department’s Continuity of Operations (COOP) Plan, specialty initiatives, and grant management support. CCS’s approach has been collaborative and thorough. April’s team has successfully engaged leadership and staff across multiple departments to guide us through a detailed and practical COOP planning process. They worked diligently to understand our specific operational needs and challenges, resulting in a comprehensive, realistic, and immediately actionable plan. The professionalism, responsiveness, and high-quality work consistently demonstrated by CCS have been critical to the success of our projects. Their ability to bring structure, clarity, and expertise to complex efforts has made them an invaluable resource for La Paz County. I highly recommend Coordinated Consulting Services to any organization seeking expert assistance with planning, training, exercises, or project management. Their dedication and performance have made them a trusted extension of our team.

Coordinated Consulting Services (CCS) is a great organization to work with. We engaged CCS to create our Health Department Continuity of Operations (COOP) Plan. April and her team were very engaged and patiently worked with our leadership team to conduct interviews and help guide us through our Business Impact Analysis. Nancy made sure all of our meetings were documented, and outstanding items were followed up on while Tina was able to pull all of the information together into a cohesive plan that is realistic and useable immediately. The patience and professionalism of CCS kept the project moving forward and their assistance in presenting the new and robust COOP plan was invaluable. I highly recommend Coordinated Consulting Services for all of your planning and exercise needs!

The CCS team expertly guided the six county Portland, Oregon metro Cities Readiness Initiative region through a complex 2-phase planning project focused on Special Pathogens Coordination in the region. This year-long project included planning and partner engagement to gain consensus in a multi-sector and multi-jurisdictional environment with local and state public health, federal partners, Emergency Medical Services, and healthcare organizations. CCS’s ability to engage with a wide variety of partners, paired with their strong organizational skills truly makes them stand out as leaders in the field of emergency planning! The CCS team took us through a gap assessment, led two training workshops, authored a comprehensive regional public health coordination plan, organized and facilitated a regional tabletop exercise and wrote an after-action report to bring the project to successful conclusion. There were times we needed to pivot our approach to the work, often at their own insightful recommendation, and they were always flexible, ensuring the project stayed on track. Their facilitation and participant engagement skills are outstanding, and the team is highly organized and always prepared for every meeting and event. CCS’s positive team culture fostered a welcoming and supportive environment for the planning team that kept everyone moving forward. I look forward to working with the CCS team again in the future!
Nevada Health Centers was in desperate need of developing a comprehensive emergency plan. We evaluated several potential vendor to assist with this process and we settled on Coordinated Consulting Services (CCS). We could not have made a better decision! The team at CCS was amazing, they knew the answers to questions we didn’t even know to ask! They were easy and pleasant to work with, flexible to our schedules and kept us engaged throughout the entirety of the project. They involved our planning team in all phases of development and guided us to the finalization of a comprehensive plan that is prepared to respond to all-hazards, with the goals of continuing operations, protecting staff and patients, and contributing to community resilience.

Coordinated Consulting Services was invaluable in the development and execution of our Emergency Preparedness & Management Training. They took a list of topics identified by our members as training needs and developed a comprehensive, customized full-day training. The training provided educational content as well as interactive elements to help the audience engage in experiential learning. We enjoyed collaborating with their team and look forward to future partnerships!
