In the presentation, we assisted the Council in understanding and discussing the study options, costs, and time frames.
Client:
Orange County Fire Authority, CA
Project:
As part of a Master Services Agreement with the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA), wherein Citygate was recently retained to provide seven as-needed organizational service level assessments of operations for OCFA’s major cost centers, Citygate performed a service level assessment of the OCFA Community Risk Reduction Department to assess the efficiency and effectiveness of leadership, personnel, and operations and to ensure compliance with policies/procedures, best practices, and regulatory agency requirements. The other six assessments part of the Master Services Agreement were for the Emergency Command Center, the Executive Leadership Team and Human Resources functions, the Emergency Medical Services Department, Field Deployment services, Fleet Services Division, and Business Services functions.
Client:
City of Berkeley, CA
Project:
Citygate is currently performing a Standards of Coverage analysis for the Berkeley Fire Department in the City of Berkeley, California. This analysis will define the appropriate level of service based on a comprehensive study of historical performance; community risk factors; expectations; an evaluation of existing and projected risks, hazards, population growth and aging, topography, density and vertical growth of the build environment; and proposed deployment strategies. This study will consider changing landscape and population density of the City and how that may impact service delivery, response times, and overall capacity to respond to emergent and non-emergent incidents. This study will also help determine if the Department should transition from dual-function (firefighter/paramedic) to single-function (EMT or Paramedic) ambulance service and whether enhanced staffing or deployment of suppression resources are needed in key areas of the City to mitigate increasing density and vertical growth.
