Customized Contingency Planning and Risk Management
Contingency Solutions, LLC provides custom designed business continuity and emergency preparedness plans and training to both public and private sector clients. Our approach is to listen to our clients’ needs, assess their risks and provide solutions. Assuring your safety and the continued operation of your organization is our primary concern.
In today's world, disaster can strike in an instant. Without proper preparation, a single event can shut down your operation and cause injury, property damage and financial hardship. Your employees, your clients, your mission and your bottom line can be significantly impacted.
"Disaster" can be interpreted in as many different ways as there are businesses or governmental agencies. Some definitions include:
· Fire that destroys all or part of your facility;
· Fire that destroys your client's operation, or your key supplier's;
· Power outages that last mere moments, or those that last for days;
· Storms that force mass evacuations;
· Terrorism or the threat of terrorism;
· Shortages or unavailability of water, food or fuel;
· Pandemic or the fear of one, that prevents employees from getting to your site;
· Communications or computer systems failures.The list goes on.
What are your definitions of disaster?
Whatever they may be, there are 3 popular options for dealing with them:
1. Ignore the possibility of it happening to your operation?
This approach is highly effective and initially the least expensive - until disaster strikes!
2. Purchase insurance?*
This is the second most popular response and an excellent start. Insurance is a key component of a continuity or disaster recovery plan, but it does not address the issue of keeping your operation going with little or no interruption. It is often expensive, slow to respond, generic, limited in scope and, by itself, places control over your recovery in the hands of an insurance company.
3. Assess your risks and develop contingency plans.
This solution restores control over your operation's recovery to you and is the only option that provides for continuity of your mission-critical operations and the survival of your business.
Our pre-event risk assessment services provide an understanding of the exposures you face and can even prevent certain losses. Our fully customized contingency plans can significantly reduce the adverse impact of a catastrophe and can keep your operation going.
