“To maximize effect at minimum cost and risk, whilst ensuring the use of force is professional and appropriate.”
This should be the goal of every organization who is involved with the use of force. The Densus Group LLC is a professional services firm that supports our client’s achievement of these goals by working with government departments and services, corporations, financial institutions and not-for-profit organizations.
The Densus Group is;
Unique. We are the only full-service provider providing the full spectrum of professional services to clients involved in, or affected by, use of force. The firm was based on the ethic of professional and appropriate use of force. We are stringently adherent to that concept.
|
A professional services firm. Our approach is client-focused and designed to be long-term, sacrificing excessive profit for societal wealth. Every member is chosen both for their knowledge and their professionalism; the desire to create and deliver enduring solutions.
|
| Multi-disciplined and multi-national. We draw from deep knowledge bases that include business consultancy, investment banking, underwriting, the military, the police and the prison services. We allocate the best talent with the most appropriate culture, experience, skills and background to a client’s needs. |
The Densus Group is a full-service provider within the ‘use of force’ spectrum, because one cannot act effectively against one issue without understanding the factors that influence that issue. For instance, one cannot develop responsible policing without being able to systematically audit the organization and then provide specialist training that is the result of thorough analysis and development.
Our firm specializes in providing enduring support to our clients, working with them to develop the skills and knowledge they require to gain maximum effect from their activities that involve the use of force. The firm was founded on the ethic of professional and appropriate use of force, and is robustly adherent to that ideal. We find the ideal to not only be morally grounded, but also practical – the irresponsible use of force increases the risk of litigation or of being judged an unwise investment risk.
The firm attracts, and is particular about engaging those who share common concepts about serving the wider community and being engaged in development for the common good. The firm is focused on creating enduring, mutually beneficial relationships rather than short-run, high profit-margin ventures.
Current clients include the US Marine Corps and the Department of Justice’s ICITAP program.

The use of force, both by government and private organizations, creates risk and liability – for example compare the exposure created by a ‘key man’ insurance policy with the additional, implied exposure from involvement in a well represented wrongful death suit. The audit practice works with those who require, or are linked to, the use of force to understand the full extent of their liability, by examining the force providers and the risks created by their employment. The audit practice can also be employed to investigate individual incidents, departments or organizations.

‘Getting more bang for buck’, or creating efficiency, is as important for force providers, such as the military, police and prison services, as it is for corporations. Achieving better results for fewer resources frees up resources for use on other commitments. The consultancy practice deploys a skill mix that is fluent in a client’s environment and appropriate business processes.

Meeting capability gaps is never simply a matter of buying an equipment off the shelf and putting it in a soldier’s or policeman’s hands. Meeting capability gaps begin with properly understanding the problem, and then designing comprehensive solutions to that problem. If only to reduce liability, a holistic approach must be taken to address issues like training, personnel, logistics, financing and liability exposure. Our staff is experienced in helping clients create comprehensive solutions that not only improve the efficacy of new solution, but that demonstrate that all possible steps were taken to create an environment in which the use of force was professional and appropriate.
