Mission Statement: Protect Resources. Support Good Order and Discipline.
 
Vision: To be recognized as the ‘BENCHMARK’ Emergency Services model organization within IMCOM for small installations.
 
Methodology: Employ a systematic integration of Fire Protection & Prevention and Emergency Medical Services, Law Enforcement and Physical Security, and Emergency Response planning, to create a comprehensive Emergency Services and Installation Security program. 
 
Operational Beliefs: The Directorate of Emergency Services has adopted the following operational beliefs, which further define our organization culture. 

  • Err to the Side of Security and Safety. We are the eyes and ears of the installation: the installation’s first response force. The leadership and employees of Fort Greely have an expectation that we will do everything within our ability to provide for their personal well-being, safety and security, as well as the protection of the equipment and resources that Fort Greely uses to support the war fighter. 
  • Strive for Continuous Improvement.We will aggressively use the Baldridge Criteria to continuously improve our operating processes, with a view toward providing more-responsive and cost-efficient support to our customers and stakeholders. 
  • Focus on Results and Adding Value.Our collective focus as an organization will be on readiness enhancement and the wise use of assigned or allocated resources. We will identify our customers and their service requirements, document what we do, and analyze our resulting statistics. As a result of that analysis, we will implement the operational changes that we deemed appropriate to maintain a viable, effective security and first responder program.
