Setting up the best Text Emergency Response System in Canada

I found a revealing article in today's Calgary Herald that most companies are at-risk with their emergency response plans and they are not fully prepared for natural disasters or emergencies (http://www.calgaryherald.com/business/Gaps+found+corporate+Calgary+emergency+response+summer+floods/9188776/story.html).

The report said Calgary’s June floods and State of Emergency significantly affected large downtown organizations - 92 per cent of respondents had their commute to work disrupted and 86 per cent closed one or more premises. A lot of businesses found that although they had a plan on paper, it may not have covered all the elements they needed to respond to the emergency, continue business, and get back up to full capacity as quickly as possible.

In particular, many businesses found it very difficult to effectively communicate with their employees to let them know about office closures, remote working arrangements, and dates for reopening. The lack of communication systems and limited access to organizational databases hindered the speed and efficiency of several companies’ communication efforts.

Now that businesses are back on their feet, it is important to consider if this happens again, how they can be as operational as possible. This includes thinking of things like cloud-based computing solutions versus servers in the basement, and even just having a centralized place for all staff personal phone numbers.
