Follow on Google News | Steelhenge releases business continuity guide for small businesses, available on the BCAW 2011 siteCrisis management and organisational resilience specialists Steelhenge Consulting have released a guide to business continuity, designed specifically for small businesses, available from the Business Continuity Awareness Week 2011 website
By: Isobel Nicholas "We felt it was important to provide a practical and succinct guide to business continuity for small businesses, and Business Continuity Awareness Week was the ideal time to launch it," said Isobel Nicholas, Director of Communications for Steelhenge. "Dominic Cockram, MD of Steelhenge, wrote it for businesses with very small numbers of employees, as they are particularly vulnerable to business interruptions yet often place business continuity as a low priority due to competing demands on time and resources," Isobel explained. When asked to describe the contents of the guide, Isobel said; "It's a pragmatic guide containing simple steps that can be taken by the company, without any external help, to increase their resilience. It outlines factors they need to consider about their business to ensure they can stay up and running in adverse circumstances, such as loss of access to premises, bad weather, failure of a supplier or any other unexpected event. It's our hope," Isobel concluded, "that the small businesses who download and use the guide will see how much they can do to protect their business and productivity from the impact of disruptions through some straightforward thought and preparation." # # # About Steelhenge Steelhenge Consulting provides end to end business continuity, crisis management and emergency planning services to a broad range of corporate clients internationally, as well as to UK Government Departments, local authorities, the European Commission and NGOs.
