Every Crisis Is A Human Crisis How many lives were lost? How many homes or businesses were destroyed? How much suffering was endured? The impact of any disaster, natural or manmade, is measured in human terms. One of the most common mistakes in business continuity planning is the failure to insure that resources will be available to implement the readiness plan. Firestorm assists its clients in making sure that every person and every resource is available when the situation calls for action. Organizations that are disaster-ready gain a strategic advantage.
