Contingency Planning

Contingency Planning

Program Benefits
With a contingency plan, you gain control and peace of mind knowing that your facility
can withstand any HVAC emergency and be back up and running quickly. Disruptions can occur at any time.

Having a plan and being prepared in advance of a HVAC emergency can reduce the risk of financial loss by:

• Shortening the time needed to acquire, install and start up temporary power, HVAC or compressed air systems. In addition, having the paperwork completed in advance further reduces down time.|
  
  
• Ensuring that all parties involved in dealing with the outage are aware of their roles and are trained in the processes and actions needed to work through the problem.
  
  
• Lowering the total cost of the temporary solutions because any necessary building modifications can be scheduled, instead of being performed under emergency conditions.
  
  
• Reducing startup delays caused by oversights or problems resulting from improvised designs.
  
  
• Improving a facility’s operations by identifying and reducing any weaknesses in the system.
