Disaster can mean different things depending on who you are. A disaster may range from a flooded basement or fire, to a natural disaster. We will assume, for this example, a disaster happens at work.

A tornado has directly hit your building, and there is no power or structure left. What happens next, and how will your company get back to normal business? This is a prime example of disaster recovery. What can you or your fellow employees do to help business resumption. There are many different things to think about.

What is Disaster Recovery?

Hopefully your company has put some thought into developing a disaster recovery plan. This plan will pose as a bible in getting your business back to normal operations. What is covered in a disaster recovery plan? One could have a list of a thousand line items, but some major components of the plan should be:

IT Recovery, structure repairs, temporary office space, call tree, evacuation procedures, server backups, Insurance, data recovery, phones, temporary tasks for employees, customer notification, media response, and risk assessment.

Each of the above topics should list details in addressing the needs of your company. The goal is to reduce any loss of revenue by getting resuming business. If a plan is developed beforehand and implemented effectively, a lot of money can be saved and prevent your company going out of business. Many companies have experienced a disaster and failed at an effective recovery with an end result of closing its doors – forever.

If you are reading this and are unsure if your company has a Disaster Recovery Plan, ask. Without a plan business resumption is difficult, whether you work for a small business or a large corporation. Many of us think, "A disaster won't happen to us", well I hate to say it, but it will.
