Easy Steps to Minimize Business Interruptions

August 20, 2020Commercial InsuranceBailey Helton

Businesses are prone to interruptions and downtimes. As a business owner, you need to have a proper plan in place to minimize the interruptions. You need to analyze potential risks for business interruptions and prepare a comprehensive plan.

Here are a few tips to minimize business interruptions:

Determine the Risks, Their Impacts, and Origins

The first step is assessing different types of risks affecting your business. Know where the threats are arising from and categorize them as per their nature.

After identifying the risks, you need to analyze their impact to prioritize their resolution.

Calculate the Interruptions’ Cost

After you’ve ranked the risks and analyzed the impact, you also need to evaluate how much they will cost your business. Consider aspects like increased costs, lost revenue, and regulatory penalties.

Create a Plan

The next step on your checklist should be creating effective plans. Your plan can be created based on your approach and the threat’s nature.

If the risks are inevitable, you need to take necessary measures to minimize the damage.

You also need to prepare a disaster communication strategy.  Integrate measures like scripted messages and omnidirectional communication chain for effective communication.

Understand Your Insurance Coverage 

You need to review your insurance coverage. Business interruption insurance usually covers physical damage to the premises that cause suspended operations and damage to the property that prevents employees/customers from accessing the business.

After reviewing your policy coverage, you need to make the necessary adjustments.

Devise an Emergency Strategy

You need to have an emergency plan to combat a sudden hazard. The plan should account for:

  • A data backup for protecting and recovering sensitive data.
  • Backup of contracts with suppliers and businesses.
  • Saving the assets’ inventory to determine the business’ reopening capability.
  • Testing the plan for ensuring its success.

Minimize business interruptions with these tips and buy business insurance for added protection. For assistance with all your business coverage needs, contact the experts at Phocus Insurance in Phoenix, Arizona.
