Rough Draft of Strategic Plan Lonnie Johnson 12/12/18 Such a proposal should be in existence because it helps the partners to make plans and projections realistically and it helps the partnership acquire funding owing to its value in explaining the partnership. A partnership proposal also supports the collaboration concerning providing the partnership with a definite structure and direction. This is vital in avoiding confusion. It also comes in handy when identifying the challenges, limitations, and weaknesses of the partnerships. Finally, it helps build consensus since everything is in writing and has been agreed upon. Critical infrastructure alludes to infrastructure whose destruction or breach can have adverse effects on the operation of a given area. The jurisdiction is for the New York City’s critical infrastructure; which includes infrastructures if different chemical plantations located in the area, financial institution, dams, power grids, healthcare institution, water and drainage systems, transport system in form of airlines and train center and IT systems. Public and private partnership are beneficial because they help ensure that are investments in the public sector and help in effective resource management. Another is that they help in timeous and high-quality service provision; as well as give infrastructure solutions (Yun, Jun, Hun, &Park, 2015). Public and private partnership does multiple of things. They represent the governments in contracts and they help in service provision. They also act as communicating channels to investor. The city is in the state of New York and it lies between Washington D.C and Boston. The terrorist threats to the town have decreased over the years. However, different areas are potential location for terrorism. These are including the subway, airlines and airplanes, financial institutions as well as other regions housing critical infrastructure among others. The subway is a potential location in New York City. Terrorist might choose to attack the New York subway which is used by a large population of the residents of New York. The primary motivation is the number of individuals accessing the subway daily. More so, the area is quite large and although security measures are put in place, containing a terror attack might be a challenge. Another thing is the city the largest in the U.S which makes it more susceptible to terrorist attacks. Financial Institution are crucial as they are the most likely places to be attacked by terrorist. Thus, the partnership ensures that the private and public sectors work together to implement techniques that protect the institutions from attack (Goetz & Shenoi, 2007). The core missions of the United States disaster preparedness agencies are to develop policies of disaster and risk management, to synchronize all response and recovery missions, to protect the people, to conserve the environment and economy and finally to build a nation the is disaster resilient. Prevention is stopping the occurrence of an undesired event. Protection is the shielding from adverse effects or incidents. Mitigation is the reduction if the gravity of disaster. A response is an action taken according to an emergency. Recovery is to restore the normal following a catastrophe (Gul & Guneri, 2015) Private sector such as cybersecurity firms, financial institutions, media houses, and NGOs; are the most influential sectors in the United States. As such, they can play a significant role when it comes to an emergency response; which is an advantage of entering into a formal agreement. Hospital can provide healthcare to victims of disasters. The healthcare institutions can also offer emergency services in the form of ambulances; which will help secure the victims of disaster. Cybersecurity firms are of gave importance to security. They protect against hacking which leads to loss of crucial information. Cybersecurity firms help government entities install protective measures concerning information technology. Media houses will assist in the dispatch of the geospatial data. Media houses warn individuals of incoming natural disaster. On the other hand, journalist also report the continuity of the incidences. NGOs are critical as they help provide essential amenities for the victims of different disasters especially the natural disaster. As such, the partnership of the private and the public sector ensures a quick and efficient response in the event of the occurrence of a natural disaster as well as humanmade disaster. The overall response minimizes the number of live lost as it allows governmental entities to secure lives and fundamental property (Goetz & Shenli, 2007). As mentioned above, the five sectors are quite influential in the city. As such, the segments should use their influences to educate individuals on the different ways that they can prepare for disasters. Media houses can reach out to large population of people. Thus, the houses can do advertisements that train the members of the community on the steps that they should take in case of an emergency. The sectors can also make financial contributions which can be used in the implantation of the different security measures. Cybersecurity firms be involved in the creation of firewalls which reduce the risk of hacking. In conclusion, the protection of the critical infrastructure of the city is crucial. The partnership for the private and public sector can be employed to ensure maximum security of the critical infrastructure. References Goetz, E., & Sheoni, S. (Eds.). (2007).
