This essay describes the experience of the Joint Terrorism Task Force, a form of interagency counterterrorism unit set up in many areas across the country after 9/11. This essay identifies what makes the JTTF successful and applies those lessons to the planning and execution of consequence management operations. The first section of the essay addresses the Department of Justice charter for preventing terrorist attacks and the history of the JTTF as the context for its organizational arrangement and success. The second section proposes applying a structure similar to that of the JTTF to U.S. government consequence management planning and execution.
