What would you do if you were locked out of your office for 5-days? If your business is unable to service its clients for 5 consecutive days or more, (e.g. have to abandon / surrender your facilities), the FEMA statistic says 80% of these businesses will be out of business within two years. Large corporations are able to fund, plan, build and test disaster recovery & business continuity plans.But what about the rest of us mere mortals? What is realistic preparation for Small & Medium businesses? Meetup 35 in Oakville saw three presenters and a panel Q&A session with 4 panelist.

Editor's Notes
- Point people to blog to hear full story.
- Our most important assets are our People, Business and Data.
- To Protect our People we have an ERP, BCP for Business and DRP for Data.
- This structure has three levels Tactical , Operational and Strategic. The Tactical level is yellow and represents the tactical level or front line response teams and include the emergency response teams, business recovery teams and disaster or data recovery teams. These groups manage all the Stage One incidents.The Operational or Orange level represents the Incident Management Team that will oversee and direct all stage two and three incidents.The Strategic is red and represents our strategic or executive level. The executive team will assist in some key decisions in terms of approvals on spending, operational issues as required and communications with internal and external groups.
- I always like to put in this slide known as the designated worrier slide. This is to point to the person who is responsible for worrying about the fact that these issues are getting handled in a timely and effective manner. When we have an incident it is our tactical level teams that spend 90% of their time worrying about how manage or clean-up the incident and 10% on maintainingoperations. The incident Management team spends 50% of their time worrying about the incident and the other half worrying about restoring and maintaining operations. The Executive team knows the incident is being managed and therefore spends 90% of their time thinking about is how to meeting operations, reputation, communications and how these may impact the organization.
- Once the incident stage level has been determined, switchboard will then know what teams or individuals will need to be activated and who needs to be notified. An activation is an alert to someone who is going to participate directly in the event.A notification is really just FYI and someone who needs to be aware of the incident but not have any direct participation or actions. You can see on this scale a stage one incident with activate the ERT and only notify the IMT. At stage two both the ERT in the IMT of the would be activated in the executive on-call would be notified. For a stage three incident, all levels of our incident management structure would be to activated.

- Decision #1 :determine your “level of paranoia”, i.e. how much can you really afford to worry about and prepare for.
- Decision #2: decide what really matters
- Regardless of organization size, what’s urgent takes precedence over what’s important.Preparedness has to be built-into routine processes, or it will be forgotten until September 12.
- Influenza ‘A’ Pandemics are to humans what fires are to forests: just a part of life.
- Large organizations and emergency responders can afford to have sophisticated Incident Management processes.

- What are the risks to your critical business processes and procedures? What would happen in you could not access your clients, issues invoices, pay employees and suppliers. How long would they wait while you figured things out? What is your process to resume communications & coordinate notifications and recovery procedures?What if an ex-employee accessed one or more of your social media accounts and posted obscene or embarrassing information about you or your company? Do you have an employee exit policy and checklist in place to protect your critical communication and social media properties, client and staff lists? Are you subject to government or industry governance & compliance requirements? What are the penalties and publicity risks associated with non compliance?Do you have just in time inventory or response sensitive SLA’s in place with any of your customer’s and clients?You’ve invested time, money, heart & soul into building your business. If your business is generating a 6 figure income for you, is it not worth investing in the protection of that income and asset stream?How much you spend on promotional items, gift baskets, and staff events relative to the ongoing resiliency of your business?
