Business, Academic & Research Continuity Planning

Emergency Management (UWEM)

Problem

All UW departments are required by University policy to have business continuity plans. Currently, few departments have such plans, and developing them is perceived as prohibitively complex and time-consuming.

Goal

  • 10% of departments have completed plans by June 2012
  • 100% of Seattle-campus departments have completed initial plans by June 2016

Team Launched:

July 2011
