Small Business Continuity Planning in Los Angeles
What is Continuity of Business (COB) Planning?
You have a successful business and you plan on being in business for a long time. Have you sat down and done contingency planning for all the things that might interrupt your business? Have you planned for that fire that may burn down your place of business? Yes you have fire insurance, but how long will it take you to collect that, and will you still be in business a week after the fire? What will happen to your customers and all those business relationships that have taken you so long to develop? What will happen to your accounts receivable and your other important business data? What will happen to your staff which you have spent so much time and money training to do the job right?
Continuity of Business planning is planning for those events which may interrupt your business. By planning for the events that may interrupt your business, you are preventing those events from destroying your business assets and allowing your company to resume business as soon as possible.
