Overview of the Workshop:

Industry and Government Leaders Present Practical Solutions to Government COOP Requirements.

 Hear from industry experts and government managers leading Business Continuity Planning and Continuity of Operations Development. The instructor Team presents practical, real-life solutions required to establish or improve a business continuity program within your Federal, State, Local, Tribal, or Private Sector organization. The key to success in moving your COOP program forward is gaining the foothold within your organization’s culture and business processes. You will hear from Federal Agency Leadership about their development of a COOP Program that has been recognized by DHS as best practice. Learn about impacts of current events that drive Telework, Resilience and other key response and recovery strategies.

Learn about the New COOP Requirements and what they mean for your organization. The Federal Government’s continuity requirements are currently being updated and this workshop will address the new developments and how it will impact your organization. 

The planning and execution of Eagle Horizon 2012 has been completed. The main focus was devolution of operations in support to mission essential functions. This workshop will address all aspects of lessons learned and the direction forward to include the best practice for coordinating devolution within your COOP Program. If your organization is in the grips of devolution or in the heat of understanding and implementation of this vital aspect of COOP, this workshop is for you.

Learn how to Justify COOP Programs to Senior Management and Build Cooperation and Consensus at the “Front line” levels. Instructors will simply and clearly answer the “what’s in it for me” question from the leadership level through, and right down to the individual implementers' level. This technique, though simple and easily tailored, is often the key to gain leadership’s buy-in and individual understanding of the complexities involving the many facets of COOP.
