The Team behind MinT
We have previously trained and worked in busy emergency service control rooms. We also have experience with the planning and delivery of various different events at both operational and tactical level.
Irrespective of the type of event we can help with the control and command function and other planning roles required.
Event organisers, venues, governing bodies, charities and local authorities across the UK.
From a single radio operator to a full multi-agency control room.
We will also assist with any other requests identified.
From initial set ups in venues, ranging from Scout huts and marquees in fields to rugby stadiums and 5-star hotels, whatever the venue we adapt the event’s needs to ensure sufficient seating, power supply and suitable layout.
Linking in with the crews on the ground we ensure that all information is passed relating to the set up of any course, whether it be on closed or open roads.
This role varies from liaising with event village staff or other teams, through to having a dedicated channel that is for the relevant event managers to communicate with one another.
We can provide the control room coordination of traffic management plans for an event, ensuring that road closures are placed in on time by the relevant contractors.
From the initial deployment of staff before an event starts, to the stand down times. We make sure staff and supervisors put road closures in at the times needed and then take them out as directed by the authorised person within the event control room.
From obtaining the initial information from the informant on the ground, we ensure all details needed are recorded and then triage the situation given other incidents that are ongoing.
Every event is different. How many of these roles we deploy, and how the control room is staffed, is shaped by the event itself.
