Complex Environments Support

Ground-level support where others do not operate

Operational support for organisations working in hostile or complex environments, from planning through to in-country delivery, coordinated with the MAST operations centre.

Complex Environments

Operating where the environment works against you

Some organisations have no choice but to work in hostile or complex environments: aid agencies, media, energy operators, and businesses following opportunity into difficult regions. Doing so safely depends on planning and support built for the specific environment, not adapted from somewhere easier.

What we provide

We provide operational support for organisations working in hostile and complex environments. This ranges from risk assessment and planning through to in-country support: secure movement, local knowledge, communications, and a link back to the MAST operations centre.

The service is built around the client's activity, whether that is delivering a programme, reporting from the ground, or maintaining an operation, so security enables the work rather than obstructing it.

What support covers

Planning & assessment

Understanding the environment before deploying into it.

Secure movement

Getting people where they need to be, safely.

In-country support

Local knowledge and on-the-ground capability.

Operations link

A constant connection to the operations centre.
