Speakers: Mr Richard Regalado

The talk was held Last Friday at AGSB auditorium. The discussion focused on Business continuity management system or BCMS by Mr Regaldo. PARR(Presidential Assistant Recovery Rehabilitation) .

For me the presentation that struck me the most was the BCMS, which will be discussed below.
The talk for me gave us critical information that are essential to the success, growth and survival of any business. It stressed that the private sector must be well equipped and they must develop their strength and capabilities to meet with calamities and other forces of nature to ensure their survival. BCMS deals with uncertainties, identifies physical and potential threats and how to mitigate the impacts to its operations. During the talk I came to know that 50% of businesses do not have BCMS incorporated in the systems or control plan and that only 14% either failed or refused to adapt one as a result of varying perceptions, financial problems and such other non-financial issues, among others. We are currently experiencing globally erratic nature, environment, and climate change, among others that seriously affected businesses. To name other few, increased vulnerability and power and energy outages, epidemic/pandemic exportations that hurt human resources in countries, which thereby likewise hurt revenues of businesses. Thus, it is vital that we are well-informed in order for us to fully
