Differentiating the SERVPRO Emergency Ready Profile (ERP)

2/21/2019 (Permalink)

Have you ever heard one of your employees say, " I know I have a file for that, it's here somewhere."

Those words are routinely heard in the commercial business world when referring to the storage methods of plans and processes.

Emergency Ready Profiles (ERPs) are amongst that list and are routinely found in a bulging, three-ring binder. It wouldn't be reasonable to permit employees to enter a burning building to grab the emergency response binder, nor should they wade through a flooded building to secure it as well.

The SERVPRO ERP is different. It's a digitized plan that travels with those who need it most. The immediacy of accessing emergency response plans from your mobile device helps minimize business interruption and provides the critical information needed to begin mitigation services. It contains the necessary information and serves as a quick reference to important aspects of your building.

It seems most disasters occur in the middle of the night or while you're away on vacation. Nonetheless, an ERP from SERVPRO allows you to respond immediately from anywhere.

Action steps can begin with a quick phone call to the nearest SERVPRO and the work of mitigating the damage can begin. The latest research suggests that as much as 50% of businesses close down following a disaster. Of those that survive, the majority had preparedness in place.

A "no cost" assessment of your facility can be done by contacting SERVPRO of East Mahoning County @ (330)536-7477.
