“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!” – Benjamin Franklin

According to FEMA almost 40% of small businesses never re-open their doors following a disaster with another 25 percent failing within one year. Many don’t realize the substantial costs associated with recovery and the gaps which may exist between insurance and available disaster assistance. The information on this page provides a starting point from which your business can build a more resilient operation. In many cases, being aware of available resources and planning for service disruption can make the difference between a successful recovery and losing it all. Don’t be a statistic, review these resources and get started on your business continuity plan.
