Integrating Crisis Management and Business Continuity at Airports
Although continuity has historically been viewed as part of the recovery phase of a crisis incident rather than a critical element of crisis response, there is an opportunity to reframe the role for continuity planning to claim it as a tool for constant adaptability to the world's many disruptions. ACRP Research Report 268: Integrating Crisis Management and Business Continuity at Airports: A Practical Guide, from TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program, provides concepts, tools, and resources to build critical thinking skills and adaptability so that airports are prepared for anticipated and unforeseen crises that threaten to disrupt operations. It sets a path for building continuity leaders at every level of an airport by equipping them with a working knowledge of continuity through activities anchored in the essential elements of a practical program.
