"Due to the increased frequency of natural disasters and terrorist events, the responsibilities of the property manager have changed. Investor and tenant organizations now require property teams to be better prepared for events and to hire service providers that are as prepared as possible to bring buildings back online as quickly."

- Joe Donovan, SVP of Beacon Capital Partners

Staying Open for Business: Communications and contingency plans are key to preparedness

The event no one wants to think about, or the one thing that "will never happen to me," can no longer be avoided. Unfortunately, many building owners and managers don't have emergency preparedness plans in place to deal with whatever "it" may be.

When Disaster Strikes, What Really Matters?

Is your company prepared should a disaster strike? Will you be action or reaction oriented? Knowing what needs to be done before, during and after a disaster strikes can prevent panic, mitigate existing damage to reduce business interruption, and, should the need arise, provide cost effective recovery solutions.
