Operational resilience and crisis management exercising and testing.

Testing & Exercising

At Oakwood Risk and Resilience, we believe that preparation is the cornerstone of resilience. In today's complex and unpredictable environment, organisations must be ready to respond swiftly and effectively to any disruption, whether it's a cyberattack, natural disaster, or operational failure. 

Our Approach

At Oakwood Risk and Resilience, we tailor our services to meet the specific needs of your organisation. Our consultants bring together a rare combination of corporate knowledge and high-risk experience, drawing from backgrounds in the police, military, and other critical sectors. This unique blend enables us to deliver comprehensive exercises that are strategically robust and rooted in real-world, practical challenges. We collaborate closely with you to design, implement, and evaluate testing and exercising programmes that reflect your operational environment and align with your risk profile.

Why Choose Oakwood for Testing and Exercising?

Because real confidence comes from experience, not just documentation.


At Oakwood, we design exercises that go beyond ticking a box. Our testing and exercising programmes are built to challenge, develop, and strengthen the people responsible for leading in a crisis. We do not just test plans, we test decision-making, communication, and coordination under pressure — in ways that reflect your reality.


Here is what sets us apart:


  • Tailored Scenarios – We design each exercise around your organisation, risks, and operating environment. No off-the-shelf scripts.


  • Experienced Facilitators – Our team brings a wealth of operational and crisis experience, but we keep the focus on your learning and development, not our war stories.


  • Progressive Approach – From basic table-top exercises to high-pressure simulations with media injects and role players, we scale to match your maturity and objectives.


  • Constructive, Honest Feedback – We provide clear, actionable debriefs that highlight strengths, gaps, and realistic next steps — not just technical observations.


  • Focus on Capability – Every exercise is an opportunity to build confidence, improve performance, and grow your organisation’s resilience from the inside out.


Whether you are preparing a leadership team for their first live incident or stress-testing a seasoned crisis management group, we create exercises that leave your people better equipped and ready to respond.
