We can advise on Business Continuity solutions to be implemented, and how to do this in the most cost-effective way. We also know most of the service vendors, and which of their products would be beneficial to you.
For example: Work Area Recovery (WAR) is the name of temporary workspace that can be used whenever the normal office is inaccessible or destroyed. For industries where interruptions have high impact, and the technical lead-time of setting up desktop equipment is long (such as in financial markets), it makes sense to prepare a WAR site that is dedicated, fully configured and immediately available. In other cases, non-dedicated “cold” sites or even a shared site may suffice, where it is okay to take a few hours to set up.
As low-cost alternative, companies often rely on Work From Home (WFH) solutions. However, imagine working from home for a prolonged period of time, with your youngest seeking attention, your dog wanting to play, your loved one needing help with errants, and many other domestic distractions. Especially in Hong Kong, where domestic housing is notoriously cramped, WFH should be carefully considered.
