He has published articles in DRJ magazine and on line with TechTarget and is one of their Ask the Expert responders. He has presented at DRJ, CPM conferences and other venues. Attention has been given of late to resiliency or upstream resiliency and this session begins by defining upward (supplier) and downstream (customer/client) resiliency. It continues by looking closely at the importance and impact of output or customer resiliency. We review the “stages of continuity” starting from the 1970’s, through Y2K and today. References discussed to actual cases such as Goodyear Tire, hurricanes such as Katrina and Rita, recovery sites and credentialing (CEAS).
