Focusing the planning process around them is.Firms like Decision Aid are hired every day to create emergency & continuity plans for government and business. A contract is signed, the firm pulls out a plan template, fills in the blanks, and delivers a binder to the customer. The binder sits on the shelf until the next required regulatory update. Sure, Decision Aid will create the binder to document the planning process. But wouldn't you also prefer us to leave something useful behind after we're gone?Our experience shows that your organization is:-More likely to maintain and update checklists and other decision aids over the long term-More likely to brief new employees on procedures using decision aids-More likely to use decision aids to assist with preparation and deployment of resources during unfamiliar and infrequent incidentsNo organization is immune to employee turnover. There's nothing preventing a disruption or crisis the week after orientation. The new employee's best chance is a simple and intuitive decision aid.Bolting on sample checklists from another business or jurisdiction to your plan is only a bandage. Decision Aid focuses each customer's planning process around the design and intended use of the tools and aids that will be utilized far more often than the binder.Contact us today to learn more about Decision Aid's fresh approach to emergency and continuity planning.
