CIPT disaster planning expertise is based on experience and technical
skills in many related fields, as well as extensive training. We begin
by taking a full assessment of your facilities, identifying its hazards
and vulnerabilities. As a team coming from the outside, we bring a
fresh, realistic approach to your organization. Our services include:
Business Continuity Planning (BCP)
Planning
to keep a business functioning during a disaster, particularly ones
that are local in nature. For example, around the Seattle area, the
predominant threat is flooding and earthquake. On the east side of the
mountains, the predominant threat may be brush fire or draught. Once
these threat types are identified, a plan is written to assist the
business in mitigating the damage caused by the local threat.
Business Impact Analysis (BIA)
BCP
identifies critical business functions that must be kept running in
order for the business to survive. For example, in a retail business,
this may involve customer relations, internal operations, financial,
and legal/statutory. In the case of a manufacturing business, labor
relations may be used as one criteria; the manufacturing process
another.
Community Disaster Planning (and Rural Community Disaster Planning)
When
a community finds itself at risk of one or more natural or manmade
disasters, it can have a plan to mitigate loss from the perceived or
real threat. In large cities this is also referred to as neighborhood
disaster planning.
Continuity of Operations (COOP)
This
is the governmental version of Business continuity Planning, dealing
with keeping critical governmental functions operating during a
disaster.
Cyber and Physical Security
This
service focuses on protecting valuable information and data, and we
would develop a plan that would utilize both virtual and physical
deterrents to intruders.
Small Hospital and Small Clinic Disaster Planning
Healthcare
organizations are the first to be overwhelmed by disasters due to a
lack of resources. Our particular expertise in hospitals allows us to
create plans that are uniquely effective for healthcare providers.
Humanitarian Logistics
This
refers to developing a plan to get the most needed services to the
greatest number of people. In recent years, this has meant contracting
with local merchants to provide goods and services, rather than
transporting massive amounts of goods and foods to an area.
Marine Cargo and Intermodal Operations
Intermodal
marine cargo and intermodal air cargo deals with several distinct
features, such as speed, volume of cargo, weather, labor relations,
power supply. These features take on difference degrees of importance
depending on each situation.
