The Densus Group provides training and consultancy in use of force and domestic intelligence, with a particularly strong track record in providing public order/crowd control, direct action, counter terrorism and investigations support.
The Densus Group is a full-service provider within the use of force and domestic intelligence spectrums; one cannot act effectively against one issue within these capability areas without understanding the factors that influence that issue. For instance, one cannot develop responsible policing without first systematically assessing the organization and then providing the specialist support, such as training, unless it integrates with the organizational culture, current equipment, legal restrictions, media considerations, personnel capabilities and other factors – this can only be the result of thorough analysis and development. Our experience includes delivering solutions that integrate multi-national government contributions incorporating consultancy, training and equipment procurement.
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. Our consultants and instructors are drawn from the best practitioners in their field globally with high levels of both academic and practical experience. Our staff includes former law enforcement and military personnel and those with other suitable professional backgrounds from the US, UK, Germany, Australia and further afield.
The 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. 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 is focused on creating enduring, mutually beneficial relationships rather than short-run, high profit-margin, low sustainable success ventures.
All training courses and consultancy solutions provided by the Densus Group are bespoke. We do not believe in applying template solutions as each client requires a package that takes into account their own unique structures, equipment, culture and operating environment.
Clients include the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, and the US Departments of State and Justice, the USMC and US Special Forces.
