Explosives and weapons logistics - Threat Resolution Ltd

Within it's definition, explosive logistics includes the management, transportation and storage of explosives and ammunition. Identifying solutions to these three logistical elements usually requires investigation into local (national) legislation and the development of regulations, procedures and training programs to satisfy this legislation. In remote and post conflict situations improvisation is often necessary which demands the adopting of explosive consequence analysis techniques. Experience demonstrates that explosive logistic solutions can be rapidly developed that meet both UN and NATO principles using regulations from those agencies and corroborated by software modelling and consequence analysis techniques.

WHA capabilities include the development of ammunition / ordnance handling procedures, training programs, safety and quality programs and inventory control. These services offered can be conducted in high-threat and post conflict environments.


Explosives transportation

The official and original ADR (Accord European sur le transport des marchendises pare route) is considered to be the Bible for the transportation of explosives and ammunition by road. Driver training programs and the development of temporary and permanent national regulations should be based upon this publication.

Explosives Storage

Capabilities include the design, development and documentation of permanent and temporary explosives and ammunition storage facilities. Additionally local or national regulations and procedures that fully cover the technical, administrative and security aspects can be developed.

Explosives, Ammunition & Weapons Management

The capability exists to design and develop ammunition logistics management systems including regulations to UN and NATO standards. Using the associate consultants network this capability includes:
  • the design and production of computer software solutions.
  • management, security and accounting issues.
  • researching and evaluation local security threats and developing appropriate mitigation solutions.

Regulations which have been previously developed incorporate a safe system of work which is achieved through the application of Risk Management techniques designed to minimize hazards from incidents and accidents.
