Business Owners: Are You Prepared For An Unexpected Disaster?

3/3/2020 (Permalink)

Have you heard of an ERP?

Emergency Ready Plans (ERPs) can help businesses prepare to recover from a disaster such as a burst pipe in your office, a fire in the warehouse, or a hurricane damaging your building. Our team at SERVPRO of Wilson/Nashville conducts free and friendly ERP consultations. Contact our office to schedule one for your business today. 

Aside from mitigating the damage to your property, ERPs are also essential because it can help educate you and your employees on how to get out of the building quickly. Safety is everyone's concern and should always be a top priority. 

50% of businesses will not reopen after a disaster forces them to close. 75% of those businesses that do, had an Emergency Ready Plan in place. 

Some advantages of an ERP include:

• A faster response time to any disaster
• Employees know how to react (e.g shutting off water, evacuating)
• Damage can be minimized
• Expense can also be minimized

What SERVPRO does:

• Identify shutoffs and exit routes
• Gather important contact information from your local gas company, electric company, etc.
• Organize all information into a hard copy report and a mobile app which is easy to access and easy to share
