BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLANNING
If you went to work on Monday morning, only to find yourself unable to access your office building, how would you respond?
Disasters and resulting business interruption can devastate companies. It is estimated that up to 50% of small and medium sized businesses that close due to a disaster never reopen. The majority of those that did reopen had some type of response plan in place. The more comprehensive the plan, the lower the costs and time to get operations back in operation.
In plain language, BCP is working out how to stay in business in the event of disaster. Typical incidents include local events like building fires or floods. Good business continuity plans will keep your company up and running through interruptions of any kind: power failures, IT system crashes, natural disasters, supply chain problems and more. I have seen first hand how businesses which are not prepared for a disaster can be burdened with unnecessary costs or lost revenue related to extended business interruption during a catastrophic event.
SERVPRO has reviewed, enhanced, or developed Emergency Response Plans for many businesses, small and large, in our area. By doing so, these businesses are now better positioned should the unimaginable happen. Our "Emergency Ready Program" is designed to be the starting point for a comprehensive Disaster Business Continuity Plan.
