Black Swan Solutions® Readiness Services

An organization’s ability to successfully manage and recover from a disaster or mass casualty event is shaped by readiness, response capabilities and a recovery plan.

We help organizations prepare for disasters by evaluating existing business continuity plans, or by developing a new one.

Black Swan Readiness services help organizations to:

  • Reduce the length of a business interruption, resulting in significant cost savings;
  • Protect their brand and reputation in the event of a disaster;
  • Ensure readiness protocols, particularly those that protect human lives and disseminate business functions to non-affected persons/areas;
  • Reduce the impact of the emotional trauma to victims and victim friends and family members; and
  • Incorporate the 9/11 commission findings and recommendations into their existing plan.

Trusted by some of the world’s most prestigious organizations, our resiliency-based program focuses on your organization’s most important assets — your employees, customers and visitors to your facility.  Disaster planning around infrastructure, IT, facilities and operations is one thing.  Disaster planning around people poses its own set of challenges.  Services include:

  • Conducting human asset impact analyses to determine and prioritize critical functions, identify risks to those functions, and develop strategies to manage those risks;
  • Developing business continuity plans for anticipating, responding to, managing, and recovering from the human impact of crises of any scale;
  • Creating workforce continuity plans that ensure effective communication with and support of employees and customers in the event of an unexpected disaster;
  • Training employees to effectively implement the business continuity plan;
  • Testing business continuity plans through tabletop exercises and/or full-scale simulation drills; and
  • Creating specialized disaster management plans for the transportation industry, including all the services listed above, to achieve compliance with federal regulatory requirements.
