BCM: Assessing Partners and Vendors

No business or community exists in isolation; all have vendors or partners in some form or another and both are needed to help communities and business grow and thrive. It's for that reason we need to assess the BCM / DR capabilities of potential business partners; either upstream or downstream. This episode will focus on questions to ask prospective business partners to find out just how well they might - or have - responded to disasters and major operational interruptions. You want to make sure that if there's a problem experienced by a partner, they have the ability to respond appropriately so you don't become embroiled and hindered by their troubles. Listen in and hear a list of questions to ask prospective partners to ensure you make a well informed decision.
