Stronger systems. Smarter policy. Readiness that holds.

Strong public health depends on sound planning, clear policy, and the readiness to act the moment a crisis hits. IEM helps public health and healthcare agencies build all three, bringing decades of experience across emergency management and public health to strengthen the systems communities rely on every day and in their most difficult moments.

Planning and Policy That Strengthen Systems
IEM turns public health strategy into action. Our public health professionals and policy analysts help agencies design programs, analyze policy, and build the systems that deliver effective, compliant, and resilient public health services. From CDC Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) initiatives to CMS and Medicaid program administration, we help agencies plan, manage, and execute complex public health missions with speed and accountability.

Healthcare Emergency Preparedness
Preparedness is where public health and emergency management meet, and IEM works fluently across both. We help health departments, healthcare systems, and emergency management agencies prepare for the full range of threats, from infectious disease outbreaks to mass casualty events. IEM has led infectious disease preparedness and response for some of the nation’s most significant public health emergencies, including COVID-19, the 2001 anthrax attacks, H1N1, and SARS. We build infection control into daily operations, train workforce teams, and monitor compliance with federal, state, tribal, and local requirements, keeping healthcare and public health operations safe when readiness matters most.

Trusted by the Nation’s Leading Health Agencies
For decades, IEM has delivered direct support to HHS ASPR, the CDC, and state and territorial health agencies, helping them design and execute some of the nation’s most complex public health missions. We bring the experience, capacity, and technical depth to support planning and preparedness efforts of any scale.
