Homeland Security and Emergency Management
Real solutions. Guaranteed results. Helping government agencies mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies and events of all kinds—from terrorism to catastrophic natural disasters—is the cornerstone of our homeland security and emergency management services.
Information Technology
Cost-effective technology that works in the real world. We build, test, and integrate custom applications, knowledge management systems, and modeling and simulation systems using best practice managed processes within ITIL, CMMI, Open Source, and other accepted frameworks.
Defense
Keeping warfighters safe and homeland defense professionals mission-ready. Leveraging applied sciences expertise, innovative IT, and military operational experience, IEM provides doctrine development, risk analysis, R&D, modeling and simulation, training, and command staff augmentation in support of installation and force protection, anti-terrorism, counter-insurgency, and disaster response.
Public Performance Management
Making good government better. IEM’s approach to performance measurement, management, and budgeting helps public agencies deliver service outcomes that have real impacts on citizens—analyzing performance information in “real-time” and presenting results in ways that easily inform decision making.
