BOLDplanning for Government
Continuity of Operations Planning (COOP) & Continuity of Government (COG) Planning
COOP and COG planning help ensure an organization's essential functions (ESFs) maintain continuity during a critical situation. BOLDplanning's expert planners hold professional credentials such as certified business continuity professional (CBCP), professional continuity practitioner (PCP), master continuity practitioner (MCP), and IAEM certified emergency manager (CEM), and have real-world experience. The online planning platform streamlines the COOP/COG planning process.
Information Technology Disaster Recovery (ITDR)
Most organizations today rely heavily on technology to support their day-to-day operations. Technology disruptions often have dramatic impacts on an organization's essential functions. As such, it is critical that plans for recovering IT assets and resources are well documented. Without these plans, significant and dangerous gaps exist in an organization's continuity plan. BOLDplanning's ITDR module is the answer for completing a truly comprehensive continuity planning process.
Emergency Operations Planning (EOP)
BOLDplanning's experienced planners and responders who specialize in EOP are ready to help organizations that need to update EOPs to match the latest guidance and planning requirements or create an EOP from scratch. BOLDplanning creates customized EOPs to meet the specific needs of each jurisdiction and state-level planning standards.
Hazard Mitigation Planning (HMP)
The BOLDplanning team has led hundreds of jurisdictions through the plan development and FEMA review process following the enactment of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA2000) through HMP. Its tested and proven mitigation planning program is designed for local, tribal, and state governments, as well as school districts and universities. The comprehensive solution, which includes advanced GIS capabilities and grant-writing services, helps communities plan for mitigation-friendly growth and sustainable development.
