It’s well known that 80% of businesses affected by a major disruption do not survive the shock as their customers go elsewhere. We know that it’s the bombs and the Buncefields that make the news, but most threats to business are fortunately far less dramatic. More worrying is the fact that your business insurance will only go so far. It’s worth checking your cover and having a plan in place to keep downtime to an absolute minimum to ensure that a crisis doesn’t turn into a disaster. We have found that the proven successful foundation of any robust business continuity plan consists of the following components:

• Workplace Continuity - we have a genuinely ground breaking and unique solution which is both affordable and flexible: we can offer your key people an unrivalled choice of 88 convenient local alternative office locations, 50 of which are right here in the Capital. We are able to keep your upfront costs to as little as £100 per person per year for guaranteed un-contended space.
• Technology Continuity - we can help enable your Information Technology & Communications (ICT) to be resilient in the event of a critical failure. We can mirror your key applications and data so that your ICT services are on standby, then by using our state-of-the-art network and data centres you can have instant access no matter where you are so it’s “business as usual”. We can provide exceptional support when you need it most, and guarantee availability from as little as £50 per user per year.
• Business Insurance - make sure that you have adequate cover for the potential loss of income and any additional expenses you may have. We would also recommend that you have a trial run of your business continuity plan to ensure that everyone knows how it works and what to do, improving continuously as necessary.

 

With the disaster recovery industry charging £3,000 - £5,000 per person per year it can be hard to justify the cost of an alternative location sitting empty just in case it’s needed. At Liquid we are able to offer a much more cost effective and flexible solution. We provide customised ICT services on standby using our state-of-the-art network and data centres and uniquely we will guarantee seating in the event of an emergency. When a company invokes this service they pay standard serviced office rates with no time limits on usage which will be covered by their business interruption insurance from as little as £3 per person per month. This redcues drastically the amount a company would have to spend whilst offering peace of mind that operations can continue operations in the event of a disruption.

The advantages and benefits of Liquid Business Continuity Solutions are:

• Convenience - greater choice in alternative workplace locations means that you are never far away from one of our business centres.
• Reduced Downtime - have your Information Communications Technology (ICT) on standby using our state-of-the-art network and data centres.
• Cost Effective - guaranteed seating with simple pay per use pricing backed up by your business insurance.
