Continuity of Operations and Disaster Recovery:
Ensuring business as usual through every crisis

When disasters strike, readiness is critical to restoring vital IT services, protecting irreplaceable information and resuming essential business operations. SiloSmashers helps you develop and execute effective continuity of operations (COOP) and disaster recovery plans.

COOP and disaster recovery planning helps organizations:

• Safeguard personnel, records and facilities
• Plan for emergency acquisition of emergency resources
• Ensure that alternate work sites and IT resources are available until normal operations can be resumed
• Restore services as quickly and effectively as possible
• Establish and communicate clear tasks, roles and authority for COOP and recovery activities

To provide effective COOP planning, SiloSmashers engages all components of your organization and addresses emergencies from an all-hazards approach, including natural disasters, health emergencies, technology and power failures, fire, civil disturbances, terrorist incidents and organized or deliberate disruptions and attacks.

Our approach applies strong facilitation and collaboration methods, proven COOP and disaster recovery expertise, wide knowledge of federal and professional standards requirements and flexible tools and techniques adaptable to each organization’s pace, path and budget.
