This week I have been reviewing the level of emergency response, business continuity and crisis management of a utility in the Caribbean. When it comes to large manuals, consultants are inclined to have a standard set of documents which they don’t do much with, aside from changing the client’s name.

Many organisations, especially those in oil and gas, manufacturing and transport industries, have emergency response plans in place. You might also have business continuity plans in place, but there is often a gap between where the emergency response plans end and the recovery can start.

Attacks on English local authorities, such as Hackney, I believe have not been paid, but the consequence of this is that three months later they still do not have all their systems back online. My view was that SEPA was never going to pay a ransom , regardless of the impact of the cyber incident.

To call this a business continuity incident seems a bit trite but there has been an emergency response to the incident and the way the authorities respond can make an enormous difference to an already difficult situation for the families.

As a consultant, I tell people how to manage disasters and incidents, but rarely do I get caught up in one, nor am I involved in the response. Last Friday, I took part in an emergency response to a fire on the Isle of Coll as a part of the community effort. Within hours they had enough stuff to keep them going for weeks.

This is a classic business continuity and emergency response incident, and I thought I would examine it through the lens of a couple of risk management concepts: black swan events and Reason’s Swiss cheese theory.
