Disaster Management

Disaster Management is dealing with the strategic organisational management processes used to protect critical assets of an organization and to ensure the continuance of the organization within their planned lifetime.

Disasters, Emergencies, and Catastrophes are not gradients, they are separate, distinct problems that require distinct strategies of response.

Organisations are forced into more and different kinds of interactions than normal; Organisations lose some of their normal autonomy; Performance standards change, and; More coordinated public sector/private sector relationships are required.

The continued ability for an organisation to operate uninterruptedly depends on management’s awareness of potential disasters, their ability to develop a plan to minimise disruptions of critical functions and the capability to recover operations expediently and successfully.

A disaster recovery plan is a comprehensive statement of consistent actions to be taken before, during and after a disaster. The plan should be documented and tested to ensure the continuity of operations and availability of critical resources in the event of a disaster.

The primary objective of disaster recovery planning is to protect the organisation in the event that all or parts of its operations are rendered unusable for an unexpected period of time.
