The Private Sector and the Military
In this time of contractionary fiscal policy and with the focus of the present administration on a whole of society approach, it behooves agencies
and businesses to seek ways in which each organization’s mission, strategy, challenges, or
vision can be complemented by the other.

security, stability & prosperity in the Americas.
Ensuring the forward defense of the United States

& cooperation.

SCJ9-Public Private Cooperation (PPC)
WHAT IS IT?
Cooperation and collaboration with partners…
– NGO
– Business
– Academia
…to create communities of interest/action in
support of security and stability in the region.
Value Added to the Private Sector It needs to make good business sense
Showcase Corporate Social Responsibility Initiatives
(Transform the way the customer sees
your products and your company )
Leverage association with the
U.S. military (and its perceived
values - stability, strength, growth)
Build better situational awareness
(Market Intelligence)
Foot in the door for future business
opportunities (Network on a local and
national level)
Why Work with Businesses & NGOs?
Underscore linkage between security and economic
development (reinforce sense of social responsibility)
Leverage resources and expertise of specialized
communities
Reinforce NGO/business
stake in stabilizing countries
and regions
Develop advocates for DoD
activities/goals
Develop sense of common purpose
Legal Guidelines
No “outsourcing” of essential tasks
No solicitations for support
No direct donations
No quid pro quos
No exclusivity
Types of PPC Engagements
Discussion of security/development interrelationship
– Interaction at multiple levels with Chambers of Commerce,
trade associations, CEOs, Academic Centers, etc.
Analytical work on key challenges
– Study on vulnerabilities of drug trafficking
organizations (DTOs)
Operational Cooperation
– Steady state – sustainment of exercise
construction projects; New Horizons/Beyond the

Stephenson Disaster Management Institute

PREP Mission By working through local universities or learning institutions
to conduct port (airport and seaport) resiliency analyses, training, and support, we seek to understand and help local communities build their capacity to provide sustainability and continuity of operations during disasters.
Local Approach

Create an integrated framework • Bridge local and industry knowledge
Collaboration • Provides for sustainable, stable, equitable, and cost-effective measures to reduce vulnerability.(2)
