Disaster Recovery Journal, Spring 2010

downtime scenarios for organizations that have lost their communications or need to operate in environments where no communication infrastructure exists. For public safety, F4W’s products provide instant unified communication support in the wake of minor/major disasters (environmental, weather, terrorism, etc.) and protect the public in other planned events. Both applications aim to solve required communication capabilities that are directly linked to DHS published documents and mandates. This puts F4W on the right path towards solving two significant “points of pain” for their leading corporate governmental clients. The F4W name gains excellence from the real life experiences the company endured and solved following Hurricanes Charlie, Katrina, Wilma and Rita. F4W worked hand-in-hand with its customers, directly addressing their needs by building products that were born from these challenging, shared experiences.

the problems that we routinely help our cli-

their people to great risk; increased costs
brought on by failure to pre-deploy, reas-

ion; lost revenues due to unnecessary or
protracted closings and/or suspensions of
routine operations; and potential litigation
arising from losses attributable to failure
to proactively monitor weather conditions.
The majority of business disruptions are
weather related, thus organizations of all

their business continuity plans. Clients now
