Invest in Business Continuity Planning, and use as much available technology as possible.
Remember 10 Tips to Be Prepared.
34
What can you do to Prepare?
Plan for the worst, and hope for the best.
Software
![Page 36: Can You Hear Me Now?ilta.personifycloud.com/webfiles/productfiles/2167146/CTPG4.pdf · COMMUNICATIONS AND OTHER EMERGENCY FAILOVER SYSTEMS GENERAL AND NON-COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS •](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042400/5f0f0ed07e708231d44247c9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
It has been estimated that 90% of companies unable to resume business operations within 5 days of a
disaster are out of business within 1 year.
1. Ensure you can communicate instructions to employees no matter what happens to the prevailing communications infrastructure.
![Page 37: Can You Hear Me Now?ilta.personifycloud.com/webfiles/productfiles/2167146/CTPG4.pdf · COMMUNICATIONS AND OTHER EMERGENCY FAILOVER SYSTEMS GENERAL AND NON-COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS •](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042400/5f0f0ed07e708231d44247c9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
2. Collect and maintain up-to-date contact information for your employees and key constituents
![Page 38: Can You Hear Me Now?ilta.personifycloud.com/webfiles/productfiles/2167146/CTPG4.pdf · COMMUNICATIONS AND OTHER EMERGENCY FAILOVER SYSTEMS GENERAL AND NON-COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS •](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042400/5f0f0ed07e708231d44247c9/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
3. Plan for your post-event roll call of employees
One way blasts aren’t helpful! You need the ability to communicate with staff and partners effectively; Roll Calls Polling Receipt Acknowledgement Live-time two way communications Conference Calls

4. Plan for a remote recovery facility
![Page 40: Can You Hear Me Now?ilta.personifycloud.com/webfiles/productfiles/2167146/CTPG4.pdf · COMMUNICATIONS AND OTHER EMERGENCY FAILOVER SYSTEMS GENERAL AND NON-COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS •](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042400/5f0f0ed07e708231d44247c9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
5. If you can protect one application, protect your email- you will need it
Important Documents
Contracts
Intellectual Property
Client and Stakeholder Communications

6. Have a system in place to avoid losing compliance and audit trails when the unexpected happens
Complete Legal Archive

Secure and Compliant

7. You must collaborate in order to recover
• Where do I go?
• What do I do?
• Do they know I’m okay?
• Where do I get information?
• Are my employees safe?
• What is the status of the business?
• How are customers impacted?

• Is everyone safe?
• Are you open for business?
• How does this event affect your

8. Test, test, and test again
![Page 44: Can You Hear Me Now?ilta.personifycloud.com/webfiles/productfiles/2167146/CTPG4.pdf · COMMUNICATIONS AND OTHER EMERGENCY FAILOVER SYSTEMS GENERAL AND NON-COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS •](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042400/5f0f0ed07e708231d44247c9/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
9. Plan not to stick to your disaster recovery plan
“…We couldn’t coordinate the simplest of tasks…” - Large regional health plan provider
Barriers to recovery from disaster:
• Inability to coordinate communication among teams & employees
• Inability to coordinate tasks and activities
• Disaster recovery team occupied answering phone calls for basic information
