Is your Crisis Management Plan up-to-date and available to everyone?
Oil and gas facilities are among the most complex industrial operations in the world: spanning oil and gas refineries, offshore production platforms, pipeline networks, and chemical plants of all kinds. Wherever they operate, the play the role in maintaining the operational buzz of work-as-usual. But what happens when catastrophe strikes? Are they able to quickly recover the situation?
What happens with employees? Are they able to assign tasks, mitigate the situation, distribute critical information to emergency personnel? How and where capture the right information at the right time? How define if the information stored could be the starting point of a crisis event?
Whenever the operations break down unexpectedly, crisis can arise. If the initial breakdown is not managed effectively, crises can spread over space and time to threaten not only the effective function but also the existence of the activity itself. In this sense, “crisis management” involves planning for, coping with, and recovering from the impacts of unexpected events.
A Crisis Management Plan (CMP) outlines how to respond to a similar critical situation that would negatively affect an organization’s profitability, reputation or ability to operate. These plans are used by business continuity emergency, crisis management teams to avoid or mitigate the damage and to provide direction on staffing, resources and communications. The most important thing for the right CMP is to be up-to-date, ready to be used and applied everywhere.
Emergency Response Director (ERD) by Omninecs Ltd, with its flexibility and interoperability, is inserted within the logic of the Crisis Management Program, representing the crisis Application Framework where it is possible to dynamically apply, rectify, see how hypothetical crisis situations evolve.
“Abnormal” events or situations may be different according to the industry and company and/ or the phenomenon to be observed. Beyond the approaches and best practices, each organization faces and manages crisis event in a different way based on its own objectives, principles and regulatory rules. In case of a natural disaster in a specific point of the globe, an Oil and Gas company will act differently from a Financial or Transport company.
So the same event will be characterized by different approaches, severity levels and solutions. ERD with its flexibility, is the pivot of the evaluation and solution processes by integrating information sources (internal and external) concerning the phenomenon to be observed. Therefore, on the basis of information captured, rules (internal and / or external), scenarios and objectives, it is able to:
-identify potentially critical situations
-trace and coordinate the execution of intervention plans (emergency plans)
-support the organization in the process of continuous improvement of what is defined
-classify and / or reclassify events traceable to the right level of severity
-support the company and staff during the resumption and restoration of activities
-provide important and consistent support in the areas of Quality, Audit and Control
