DMI: CORPORATE EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS, COMPANY EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS

Every business, no matter how large or small, is vulnerable to a crisis situation. An incident could occur at any time, without warning. Some incidents threaten business operations, while others damage community relations, create adverse publicity, or result in financial loss and civil liability. Preparing for potential crises may seem like a daunting task, but there are actions you can take now to ensure your organization manages emergency situations effectively, whenever they occur. The key is to create an infrastructure that allows for the management of incidents ranging from minor incidents appropriately handled by site managers, through major crises that trigger a coordinated response at the highest levels of the organization.

DMI Provides for a 24/7 Corporate Emergency Alert System for Reporting Incidents

The cornerstone of responding appropriately to an incident is a 24/7 reporting process that ensures incidents are immediately reported, evaluated, and escalated as necessary. DMI’s Hosted and On-Premise Emergency Alert and Notification features facilitate rapid involvement of the appropriate response team at the earliest opportunity, which in turn determines how well the organization handles the incident.

Dial Me in offers two Emergency Alerts platforms for Government Agencies

Hosted – Dial Me In provides the equipment and phone lines, your data list is protected in our Secure Level 3 Facility.
On Premise – DMI’s Voice Broadcaster Pro is professionally installed at your location or in a Secured Level 3 Facility.

Predetermined Unlimited Groups and Subgroups could be established with around-the-clock contact numbers for the Crisis Management team. The site manager makes one call to the Crisis Management Team to report the incident. The Crisis Management Team can assess the situation and then they can instantly make another call back to the site manager or could simply alert or notify all personnel effective by the incident. More advantages would include the ability for the recipient to respond back with a message that would go to the callers Voice Mail. When the incident is under control an “all clear” can be given by the Crisis Management Team to all effective parties with just one call.

Features of a Corporate Crisis Management Plan

This plan specifies corporate policy when dealing with incidents that could disrupt business operations or damage the corporate reputation. The Corporate Crisis Management Team implements the provisions of this plan. To ensure consistency and completeness in addressing response requirements, checklists should be developed outlining actions to be considered when addressing a specific type of emergency. At a minimum, checklists should be developed in the following areas:

Kidnapping/Extortion
Terrorism/Sabotage
Civil Protest
Labor Strikes/Work Stoppage
Industrial Accident
Fire

Major Chemical Release
Natural Disaster
Product Recall
Product Contamination
Transportation Interruption
Compromises of the Corporate Data Network

Having a Plan is not enough. Communication, Training and Practice are the Key DMI Emergency Planning Department’s personnel can assist your business in the design of a Corporate Emergency Plan. DMI will set up and assist with conducting 4 Emergency Alert Test per year to insure that that anyone who may have to manage an emergency situation knows the plan and can find items like checklists when they are needed.
