5 Importance of Private Sector Businesses to Community Resilience Programs Many experts believe that private sector businesses at the heart of the community’s economic base are also at the heart of the community’s resilience. The business community often has the skills, finance, influence, and ability to mobilize resources, and strategies and solutions for community resilience. To manage risks, the most basic approach to engage the private sector is to encourage businesses to improve their own resilience and the resilience of their supply chains. To provide voice and perspective, another pathway to engagement is for businesses to become stakeholders in the community’s resilience initiatives. This type of engagement is key to resilience, as it helps identify areas of common cause between public and private stakeholders, and it builds trust and longer term commitments between stakeholders. Engage the business community actively in resilience planning, understand the goals of the community and business during blue sky days, and during response and recovery after a disruptive event, and align those goals to improve resilience.

6 How Businesses are Making Communities More Resilient The emerging business continuity strategy of private sector organizations is simply one of corporate social responsibility. National Disaster Recovery Framework Recovery Continuum [FEMA 2016] The role of business in disaster-recovery response, and financing makes communities more disaster resilient across the continuum of the preparedness, response, and recovery phases of disasters.

7 Information Exchange for Community Resilience A draft international standard provides guidelines for information exchange, through using principles, a framework, and a process. It seeks to create mechanisms for information exchange by which participating organizations can learn from other´s experiences, mistakes and successes. It can be used to guide the maintenance of the information exchange arrangement in order to increase commitment and engagement. It provides measures that enhance the participating organization’s capability to cope with disruption risk. This international standard can be used by private and public actors in need of guidance for how to set up the conditions for information exchange. ISO/CD 22396 Guidelines for information exchange between organizations, recognizes that risk overlaps and crosses boundaries. Information exchange on liabilities, risks and vulnerabilities can enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of organizations. Copyright © 2017 The Continuity Project, LLC. All rights reserved.
8 Principles The effective exchange of information by organizations: creates and protects value, is founded on mutual benefit, requires a give and gain perspective, is based on trust and the willingness to exchange sensitive information, is a basis for informed decision-making, is systematic, timely and structured, is an integrated part of everyday work, and is based on continual improvement. The principles present the core of the standard. The information exchanged will result in increase preventative measures and capacity building leading to a general increase in security.

9 Process The process suggests that organizations should: • Establish/operate information exchange arrangements as a mechanism that allows an organization can learn from others’ inputs, successes, mistakes, and experiences, • Embed the information exchange arrangements in the organization’s general processes of operations, • Customize and optimize for each organization’s conditions, and • Ensure that the information exchanged is subject to a process that ensures security of the information, based on trust or anonymity. Establish the Needs Prepare Each Organization Define Forum Structure Operate and Maintain Forum Monitor and Review The process describes information exchange procedures for establishing and maintaining the arrangement.

10 Framework Continual Improvement Monitor Review Assess Mandate and Commitment Understand the Context Design the Framework Implement the Framework The success of information exchange arrangements depend on the effectiveness of the framework for providing the foundations and guidelines that will embed it within the participating organizations.

11 How to Align Planning Activities of Business Continuity and Community Resilience A jurisdiction’s public sector planners should collaborative with key stakeholders from local businesses and industry to: • Engage the private sector to encourage businesses to achieve business continuity and supply chain value, • Identify common cause and risk mitigation among private and public stakeholders, and build trust and longer term commitments, • Implement combined strategies to achieve greater resilience in the community. The figures on the next slides show the planning activities align. Business continuity (BC) planning activities meet the needs of organizations and the outcomes of the BCM programs.
