Disaster Planning & Business Recovery Services

Like it or not, disasters are a reality. When it comes to your business, disaster could be as drastic as an earthquake or tornado, or as commonplace as a virus.

Regardless of the source, the impact is the same. Trouble! Take time now to analyze your business and determine where you can and cannot afford to be affected. Better yet, call our office and we'll provide a free initial consultation to help determine what you should and should not be doing.

Disaster Planning entails much more than making sure you have a reliable backup of your data, although that's important! DP also looks at other elements of your business and notes where redundancy and restoration ability needs to be in place.

For example, most businesses have insurance in case something happens to physically damage property, like your building or your office equipment. However, do you have a plan in place on what to actually do in that event? If a computer is destroyed, it will take time to replace it. What do you do in the meantime? DP recommends that you have a different computer designated as a backup machine and have copies of all software installed, or quickly available, in order to continue operating.

We can guide you through the DP process and help you to take those steps that may save your business in the event of a true disaster.

Business Recovery is a different but related service. Once disaster strikes, our Business Recovery experience will be at your disposal. Essentially, Business Recovery means that we do whatever it takes to get your business back up and running in the least amount of time. It obviously works best if you already have Disaster Planning in place, but we understand that sometimes that simply won't be the case.

If you are ever in need of Business Recovery service, call our office immediately and someone will assist you. Established customers should inquire about after-hours contact information.
