  Don’t Let Recovery Be Your Blind Spot: How Business Continuity Management Software Closes the Post-Crisis Gap In the immediate aftermath of a crisis, most organisations focus on emergency alerts, protecting staff, and restoring critical operations. Business continuity management software plays a vital role in those first crucial hours. But what happens once the initial chaos subsides? That’s where many plans fall apart. According to the Business Continuity Institute, up to 70% of business continuity plans fail during the recovery phase . The biggest threat often isn’t the crisis itself—it’s the disorganised, slow, and inefficient recovery that follows. That’s the recovery gap —a dangerous disconnect between initial response and full operational restoration. This blog unpacks why traditional business continuity tools often stop short at emergency response and leave recovery unsupported. It explores the complexities organisations face when managing repairs, coordinating teams, t...

  Tabletop Exercises: Turning Emergency Plans into Real-World Readiness Having an emergency plan on paper isn’t enough. True preparedness is tested not when your plan is written, but when it’s activated. That’s where tabletop exercises come in—structured, scenario-based sessions that reveal how your team actually performs under pressure. In this blog, we explore the limitations of traditional fire drills and highlight why they often create a false sense of security. While fire drills test evacuation procedures, they fail to address the complexities of real crises like ransomware attacks, supply chain disruptions, or active threats. Tabletop exercises , on the other hand, bring together cross-functional teams to simulate realistic scenarios and evaluate decision-making, communication flow, and coordination in real time. You’ll discover: Why written plans alone don’t ensure readiness How tabletop simulations differ from standard drills Common mistakes that weaken exercise...

 Airports are high-pressure environments, handling thousands of passengers, goods, and aircraft daily. With so much at stake, one critical question remains: how can airports respond swiftly and effectively when something goes wrong? Security threats — from suspicious bags and cyberattacks to unauthorized access — can escalate within moments. In these situations, it’s not just the response that matters, but how quickly and clearly information is communicated. Unfortunately, many airport operations still depend on outdated tools like walkie-talkies, email chains, and overhead announcements. These methods can slow down response times and lead to confusion during critical incidents. That’s where Mass Notification Software (MNS) becomes a game changer. In this blog, we explore how Mass Notification Software enhances airport crisis response, improves communication speed, and helps airport and airline teams manage incidents with precision. We spotlight QComm , a powerful platform des...
