Not us, surely? Disaster recovery planning for premises

Abstract

Examines some of the issue involved in premises‐related disasters, and seeks to identify what can be done before the event to minimize the after‐effects. Considers three aspects of the facilities department′s responsibility: risk assessment, impact assessment and the preparation of a disaster recovery action plan – allowing a proactive response to any disaster. Concludes that a proactive approach is essential to avoid the wasting of valuable time after a disaster, while good disaster management can provide spin‐off benefits.
