Emergency Response Plan
The Emergency Response Plan (ERP)
is a valuable tool to which no company should go
without.
The ERP, is the foundation on which responses to
various events inclusive of threats, risks, and
vulnerabilities are carried out. An ERP plan
which does not consider risks or vulnerabilities
is flawed and will have disastrous results.
The elements of your emergency
response plan will be addressed either through
initial development, comprehensive plan review,
or exercise and testing of your current plan
with the goal of evaluating and improving the
current plan and/or revising those procedures
already in place.

into account many common elements which shall be
