Earthquake in DC Area Leads Concert Technologies to Announce Company-Wide Contingency Planning Strategies

Online, July 16, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Following the minor 3.6 magnitude earthquake that awoke the DC area early Friday morning, Concert Technologies announces its company-wide contingency planning program. This program allows for the continuity of customer support and the security of both nationwide and global multi-site enterprise technology deployment projects.

Utilizing the Maestro Technology Rollout System, Concert Technologies has developed a dependable Enterprise Risk Management Program as part of a Business Continuity Plan. Employing a Unified Resource Rollout Delivery Team as part of the company's internal resources allows for a maximized redundancy, scalability and a highly efficient communication flow. Concert Orchestrates Processing System (COPS) is a web-based software application that allows our rollout delivery team to telecommute and the seamless continuity of any enterprise technology deployment project during an event that closes our offices.

"This program, though always in place, is being defined at a time of much necessity. After a winter with multiple snow storms, a summer with record heat, the mild earthquake in the DC area this morning and in a time where a national security threat could cripple business, Concert Technologies recognizes the concerns of its technology rollout customers regarding the continuity of operations during a disaster," Concert Technologies President and Founder Dennis Mazaris commented. "Though lucky this earthquake was minor and caused no damage, we must be prepared for the reality of a disaster, such as a stronger earthquake, that carries the potential to affect business," he added.
