About OGL
Our Vision
Our Mission
To lead the emergency management and homeland security industry in providing innovative, professional and cost-effective services and products to the public and private sector.
Our History
OGL was founded in September 2005 by Kyle Olson to support Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts on the Gulf Coast. Mr. Olson’s vision was to assemble an unsurpassed team of experts committed to providing cost-effective, flexible solutions for state and local governments facing a constantly changing preparedness environment.
Over the last 20 years, OGL has grown to become one of the nation’s leading homeland security and emergency management consulting firms, supporting government agencies, private businesses, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations throughout the United States.

As practitioners and subject matter experts in their respective fields, our staff enable us to offer insights and expertise characteristic of an industry leader, combined with a dedicated commitment to excellent customer service typical of a small business.
