BRIEFING

THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS ARE GOING TO GET DANGEROUS. Active shooters, organized gangs, domestic and foreign terrorists, union thugs, and rioting mobs have all placed businesses in their cross hairs. Half of the United States of America now view business as the enemy, spurred on by a political class fanning the flames of class warfare.
Conventional mechanisms like law enforcement, the judicial system and business insurance coverage will not cope with these increasing dangers, and will no longer provide the level of security that business owners have come to expect. Forward thinking business owners understand they need to provide their own defense and security. We credit both the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security with being honest about the reality of an active shooter scenario. Both admit that law enforcement will not arrive in time to stop the carnage. The FBI offers the following advice: Research has shown that many of these situations are over in minutes and law enforcement may not arrive in time. As a result, employees have to become stakeholders in their own safety and security and develop a survival mind-set comprised of awareness, preparation, and rehearsal. The Department of Homeland Security via this training video advises you:

Active shooter situations are unpredictable and evolve quickly. Typically, the immediate deployment of law enforcement is required to stop the shooting and mitigate harm to victims. Active shooters usually will continue to move throughout building or area until stopped by law enforcement, suicide, or other intervention. DEVELOP YOUR OWN PRIVATE SECURITY FORCE Until now, small businesses were at a disadvantage when it came to security. In the past, small businesses were limited to two choices, either hire expensive security guards or depend upon local law enforcement to provide for their safety and security. Hiring security guards is not only expensive but questionable as to training and consistency, while law enforcement will never be there when a threat materializes. For the first time, businesses now have an alternative - developing their own private security force. Developing a private security force in a small business takes on the same dimensions as developing and managing other competencies in a business. You develop and manage a private security force the same way you develop and manage a sales force, human resources department, engineering group, etc. Your private security force is staffed by your own employees, who undergo comprehensive basic and recurrent training in order to learn the skills necessary to defend lives and property. The employees in your private security force come from your existing ranks who are cross-trained. These are not full time positions, which limits your costs and because you control the training and select the participants, you

can be confident that your private security force will effectively defend lives and property. Pulse O2DA Will Help You Develop Your Own Private Security Force Pulse O2DA will teach you and a select group of your employees how to defend your lives and property. You will learn three weapons systems - handgun, shotgun, and rifle, and the small unit tactics necessary to operate as a cohesive fighting unit. The training you receive from us will be equal to, and in many cases better than the training provided to your local law-enforcement SWAT teams. Our instructors all come from significant military and law enforcement backgrounds. We start by teaching you how to eliminate the threat before the authorities arrive. We train you on exactly what to do from identifying the threat and the firing of the first shot, to the arrival of the first responders. We at Pulse O2DA will train you and a trusted group of your employees to stop the carnage. We will teach you the skills and the mind set to eliminate a lethal threat. We train our proprietary methodology - the Pulse Engine. Pulse O2DA has one of the most comprehensive training systems available today. We combine our live training with online videos, photos, and manuals to deliver a 360 degree 365 day training solution. We teach a devastatingly effective gun fighting methodology we created called the Pulse Engine, a method that quite simply unravels an adversary. The Pulse Engine methodology, based upon the theory of maneuver warfare, integrates more than 30 concepts, techniques and principles into a powerful gun fighting methodology that enables you to dominate a lethal force confrontation. At its core, the Pulse Engine shapes conflict to your advantage,

and to the disadvantage of your attacker. The Pulse Engine methodology focuses on rapidly exchanging initial disadvantage for advantage by increasing your interaction with your environment (cover/concealment, etc.) while simultaneously isolating and breaking your adversary down so that he is no longer a threat to you or others. Your Training Integrates FirearMs FundaMentals, Reality Based Tactical SiMulations and Tabletop WargaMing When a lethal threat appears, and law enforcement response may be late or inadequate, individual skills and preparations are only a partial solution. 360 degree, 24/7 security is palpably, demonstrably beyond the ability of an individual to maintain for very long, and when you are protecting something bigger than yourself, the problems multiply. Whether your entity is a business, church, school, or community, your choice may someday be what Ben Franklin characterized as hanging together, or hanging separately. From Beslan to Mumbai, from Moscow theaters to Kenyan malls, and sadly in our own American businesses, schools and public venues, lethal threats are a fact of life in our era. The transition from the everyday routines of life to combat can occur suddenly, violently, in the midst of those we must protect; and it will be shrouded in fog, friction, and chaos. If the fight comes to us on our own ground, we can leverage the advantages of knowing the ground and rehearsing on it. We can prepare ourselves in advance for every specific contingency we can foresee, as well as those we cannot. So armed, we have a

good chance to deter, disrupt or detect a threat before it materializes, or if the fight is on, we can retain the initiative or retake it swiftly. With dedication, perseverance, and good training, you can learn how to dominate an adversary and win a gunfight. But just as an army can win every battle and still lose the war, the most formidable gunfighter can still fail catastrophically if he lacks situational understanding and the ability, based on study, rehearsal, and experience, to make timely, effective decisions above the level of individual tactics. Through tactical simulations and tabletop wargaming Pulse O2DAs business, school, and community defense programs will help you to: Define your goals and mission; Derive your defensive strategy; Characterize your particular strengths and vulnerabilities; Characterize your potential threats; Develop a list of mission-essential and supporting tasks, hierarchically organized, to guide both your training before, and your decisions in a crisis. (What is most important? Most urgent? How do you task organize, and sequence your actions?) Prepare crisis response plans that are simple, based on shared understanding, designed for decentralized execution, and adaptable to changing or unforeseen circumstances.

Rehearse your response plans until, for all of your key personnel, appreciation of the situation, decision making, and appropriate action happen together in what Clausewitz called the coup doeil, or strike of the eye. Or as T.E. Lawrence said, Nine-tenths of tactics are certain, and taught in books: but the irrational tenth is like the kingfisher flashing across the pool, and that is the test of generals. It can only be ensured by instinct, sharpened by thought practicing the stroke so often that at the crisis it is as natural as a reflex. Your Training Is Delivered In Two Phases - Basic Training And Recurrent Training. Basic training begins with a 5-day, 3-gun session conducted Thursday - Monday at your facility and a nearby live fire range or at our facilities (if training at your facilities we need clear access to the facility which can be done on the weekend or in the evening). The following is covered or accomplished during basic training: Theoretical, strategic, and tactical fundamentals of gun fighting clearly explained Intensive handgun, shotgun, and rifle firearms training for both the individual and team Small unit tactical team organization, tactical fundamentals, formations, and maneuvers Tactical simulations via RBT and/or tabletop wargaming Individual and team live fire and dry practice drills

RECURRENT TRAINING As part of your basic training we provide you with a suggested schedule for recurrent training including dry-practice and livefire exercises. At minimum you will want to stage reality based training exercises every six months and from time to time you will need to replace employees who depart the company. We offer several recurrent training options from a monthly stand-by retainer to a train the trainer solution where we train and certify one of your employees to manage and deliver our training methodology. If youre facing a particularly tense period (union unrest, rioting, downsizing, etc.)we can mobilize and deploy our own security specialists to augment your efforts. TRAINING FORMATS We offer two different training format options; on-site and remote. The on-site format involves Pulse O2DA coming to your facilities and training you and your staff at your business and at local ranges. The remote format has you traveling to our facilities for your training. The primary differences between the on-site and remote options is degree of customization, cost and availability. On-Site Format. With the on-site format, we can tailor the training to fit your exact facility layout. Onsite training allows your staff to train in their facility which provides a better learning environment. The fee for the on-site format covers the program cost, travel, food, lodging, ammunition, production and miscellaneous items. In total, for a firm training 5 team members, the cost for the on-site format would run approximately $30,000 to $40,000. Please call

or email us to discuss the cost of this format and to receive a detailed cost proposal. Remote Format. The remote format has you and your staff traveling to our training facilities at The Site Firearms Training Center located in Mt.
