Priority 2 - Short-term (4-24 hours)

  • Project management and client communication
  • Supplier coordination and procurement
  • System design and engineering services
  • Emergency installation services for healthcare and public sector clients

Priority 3 - Medium-term (1-5 days)

  • Routine maintenance contracts
  • Marketing and business development
  • Administrative functions

RISK MITIGATION STRATEGIES


IT Systems: Cloud-based infrastructure with automated daily backups ensures data protection. Remote access capabilities enable staff to work from alternative locations. Our IT provider offers 4 hour emergency response.

Supply Chain: Multiple approved suppliers for critical components minimize single-source dependency. Strategic stock holding of high-demand items supports immediate project needs. Equipment sources vary and allow non-geographic supply dependency.

Staffing: Cross-trained personnel across key functions ensure coverage during absences. Remote working capabilities allow continuation during site access issues or regional disruptions.

Facilities: Alternative workspace arrangements with partner organizations enable rapid relocation if primary premises become unavailable.

INCIDENT RESPONSE

Upon identifying a disruptive event, our senior management team convenes within 2 hours (during business hours Monday to Friday) to assess impact and activate relevant continuity measures. Clients will then receive proactive communication regarding any service impacts, with regular updates until normal operations resume. These aim to be delivered within 24 hours.

TESTING & REVIEW

This plan undergoes monthly (for security) and annual review to validate effectiveness. Post-incident feedback leads to greater future resilience. All documentation is regularly updated in line with ISO9001 prerogatives.
