Loudon County, Virginia: Training & Exercises

Home to nearly 170,000 residents, Wyandotte County operates under a unified government with Kansas City. The County needed to update its Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) to meet FEMA standards, improve resilience, and ensure access to federal mitigation funds. iParametrics provided comprehensive support to help achieve these goals.

Situation

Every four years, Loudoun County updates its security training for elected officials and staff working in the Board Room. The County needed a scenario-based exercise and seminar aligned with local policies to prepare leadership for violent disruptions or active shooter events.

Task

iParametrics was tasked with reviewing existing procedures, conducting stakeholder interviews, and developing a full training and exercise package. Deliverables included a training seminar, exercise plan, feedback collection tools, and a final report with actionable recommendations.

Action

We designed a HSEEP-compliant one-hour seminar and three-hour full-scale exercise with five evolving scenarios. Our team led all planning meetings, coordinated security roles, and conducted interviews and surveys. Immediate feedback and post-event reporting supported rapid insights.

Result

The exercise met all objectives and was praised as the best the County had held since 2012. The project enhanced preparedness, delivered a professional report with improvements, and demonstrated the County’s commitment to public safety and governance continuity.
