Emergency Management Consulting

Is your business prepared for a hurricane, fire, terrorism or sabotage?
Recovery from a disaster was once the peak of business wisdom. The context has now changed from
coming back quickly to never going down at all. With the highly competitive markets, slim profit margin,
and tight overhead, losses due to natural or technological hazards can make the critical difference in a
business' capacity to maintain profitability or even survive. Fortunately there are cost-effective strategies
that can reduce or even prevent losses.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor statistics . . .
" over 40% of al companies that experience a disaster never reopen
" over 25% of the remaining companies close within two years

Running a business is time consuming and your eye must be on the bottom line. Having a plan is the first
step in minimizing your down-time, structural and inventory damage and employee turn-over. Benefits of a
sound business continuity strategy include:

* Increased safety for customers and employees
* Reduced down-time and production
