Olympics 2012 - Business Continuity

Why businesses are considering Business Continuity more seriously becuase of the 2012 Olympics.

Business Continuity - London 2012

The 2012 Olympics are providing a tremendous boost for the British economy but, as most businesses in our capital are aware, they also present a potential risk to organisations operating in London.

While most companies are implementing technological solutions such as cloud computing to enable staff to work from home in the event that transport systems are disrupted, this would not be a completely satisfactory option should there be a major incident rendering premises inaccessible for a prolonged time.  So most organisations that are serious about maintaining service levels in any event are busy putting continuity plans together which can be quickly implemented should things go a bit pear-shaped.

This is where DSM can help.  Organisations can take out contracts for access to emergency office space in their workplace recovery facility in the event of not being able to use their own for any reason, not just Olympic related.  Although well away from the transport tangle of the inner M25 area, the DSM facility is less than an hour from London.  The site is very secure and resilient with lots of parking space.  Companies can work with DSM staff to pre-build computer and phone configurations so that normal business can be resumed with a minimum of disruption and Service Level Agreements can be maintained.
