Facility Resiliency Planning is the structured process of ensuring that occupied facilities can continue to support their intended operational role under stress, degrade gracefully when stressed, and recover predictably after disruption. It is not:
- Storm restoration planning (focused on network repair, crews, logistics, and customer restoration)
- Business continuity planning (focused on business processes, people, IT systems, and recovery time objectives)
Facility resiliency sits between these domains and answers a different question:
“Will the physical facility itself enable or constrain our ability to execute storm response and business continuity plans?”
This month’s discussion will focus on facility resiliency: planning, proactive and reactive measures. We will discuss resilient performance across different facility types, where investments are paying off, and where assumptions have failed. The discussion will range from vulnerability assessments to proactive measures to harden facilities to reactive plans where necessary. Practical lessons learned and defensible tradeoffs are solicited, along with any measures that can realistically be benchmarked.
Join us to share your perspectives and hear how other utilities are addressing these challenges. All utility staff and business partners are welcome to participate.
Please take the short shared practice survey on this topic – it will only take a few minutes and your input is greatly appreciated. Upon completion you will go to the meeting registration form (and all participants get the survey results whether they can attend the meeting or not).
