Disaster Planning With Capital Management Solution

By Sandra Lee


Be it a natural disaster or something else, when it comes to recovering from a business disaster, the results can be quite damaging. However, there are quite a few things, as capital management solution, you can do to get your organization back up on its feet and running successfully again.

As much as the tradition is to go off and be in the office. You may want to start getting used to the digital age. Once in a while treat yourself and your staff to a day a week to work from home. This will get you used to the idea of not coming into the office. And by doing this you would have already set up all the necessary gear you need to bring the office home, such as the internet, phones, PCs and more. This way if something happens to the office, you will still be able to work.

You should always have a list of the vital items that you need to remember to take with you if things go bad and you need to evacuate. For instance, you may be a facility where you have client s funds secured on the premises. And unfortunately, this is cash and not in an account, so you would need a plan to et it out and remember firstly, that it is there before running out.

If you want to make sure that you are able to leave the office with everything that is important and be a hundred percent sure that you won t regret anything after you left, it is best to put together a team of people to be leaders in making sure your list is carried out. You also need certain people to make sure your staff are safe and led out the doors.

In a case where everything is put on hold or let s assume all your equipment has broken down due to a lightning storm, you need to be able to let your clients and family know. You should already have a response ready to be sent in a bulk mail to everyone that s important. Always keep it close by so that you can access it from your phone also. Send it to everyone to let them know what has happened and that you are all safe.

If you do decide to make the move and work from home now and then you would need to make sure that you avoid keeping physical documents. It will be much harder to meet staff and clients, so it is best to move everything to the cloud as well as shared drives so everyone has visibility of the work that is being done, and it is stored in one safe place.

It is important to have a team that is dedicated to monitoring for disasters. This could be staying alert of certain changes in the market that could directly impact you or checking for hackers or something else. But when you have the heads up you can start putting together a plan of action before it turns into a disaster.

As much as it may seem like hard work, it actually isn t. And it greatly prepares you for times when you will most need it.
