Spending a few hours putting together an emergency plan will allow everyone to act with confidence

When it comes to surviving a disaster with speed and grace, solid preparation can be a difference-maker. An emergency profile on file presents a decided advantage when a significant water leak or flooding hits your company in South Whittier, CA. The program works by providing tools and resources that enable you to ramp up your disaster response before it strikes. It not only makes it more likely your company will reopen after a business interruption, but it also helps pave the way for a fast recovery. It can limit your company's exposure to expenses while making sure the company will be there for future customers. The program is a specialty of SERVPRO, the company that is Here to Help during a disaster.

The Features of an Emergency Profile

The profile helps your company before, during, and after water damage happens. The highlights of the program strengthen your response in the following ways:

• A no-cost assessment of your facility identifies strengths and weaknesses
• A concise profile document gathers critical information in one place for easy access in an emergency
• A guide provides the basics of reentering your building in a safe manner
• A contact number allows you to call your SERVPRO water mitigation franchise for an emergency response
• A reference guide for shutoff valves and power sources provides directions for emergency personnel
  

An emergency is often chaotic time. Having all your information compiled ahead of time reduces stress and makes for a better response.

The Benefits of an Emergency Profile
A smart plan increases the safety of employees and customers. It establishes a line of command within the company and identifies who to call first. An ERP app further simplifies the process by having all the pertinent information on your phone. In some emergencies, your phone might be your only reliable communication source in the initial hours. Spending a few hours putting together an emergency plan will allow everyone to act with confidence.
