Tropical Storm Zeta hit GA and the Atlanta region last night.  Over 1 Million homes and businesses started the day without power. 

If you have a Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan, you know exactly what to do and what steps to take right now.

A business continuity plan includes strategies for responding to unplanned outages and other risks that could affect your ability to run your business.   These risks usually include natural disasters—weather-related events, flood, fire, or cyber and virtual attacks.   It should be reviewed and updated regularly. 

A typical plan includes:

  • Identifying all potential risks
  • Determining the effect of the risk on the company’s normal operations
  • Implementing procedures and safeguards for risk mitigation
  • Testing the procedures to ensure their success
  • Constantly reviewing the processes to make sure it’s updated

Once a business identifies its risks and vulnerabilities, it needs to take the following steps:

  • Understanding how these risks will interfere or affect operations
  • Setting up procedures and safeguards that mitigate risks and offer rapid solutions
  • Systems on how to test solutions to ensure they work, and scheduling them regularly
  • Ensuring that processes are systematically reviewed to make sure they’re up to date

Let us know when you are ready to work with us on getting a Plan finished and Documented so you are not left out in the cold next time.
