Government Continuity of Operations (COOP)
Any governmental organization, large or small, centralized or dispersed, can suffer disruptions to its operations. Problems can cross the spectrum from power brown-outs to labor actions to storms to chemical spills to terrorist attacks. Many agencies are required to set up formal business continuity processes that are audited on a regular basis.
Most enterprises, according to government and analyst reports, are simply unprepared to deal with many threats. An avian flu pandemic is an especially devastating example. Workers may not be allowed to go to the office for extended periods. Beyond the obvious health threat, that could shut down your agency. Period. The solution may be to include Telework in your continuity of operations planning. It's quick to implement and easy get people to use.
Government Continuity of Operations (COOP) requires three elements: People, Process and Technology - and the ability to tie the three together via command, control, coordination, and communications. From an operational standpoint, this means:
- timely access to key documents
- flexible connectivity and immediate communications
- ability to manage and control complex procedures
- robust security
SiteScape is helping clients today meet the demands of a COOP solution through a unique combination of features built on real-time communications and secure workflow-driven document and task management.
