About ACP

The Association of Contingency Planners (ACP) is a non-profit trade association dedicated to fostering continued professional growth and development in effective Contingency & Business Resumption Planning.  ACP is the recognized premier international networking and information exchange organization in the business continuity industry.

The Association began as an informal organization in 1983. The original group was formally organized in 1984 as a non-profit. In 1985, Articles of Incorporation were submitted to the State of California that set guidelines for chartering chapters and outlined the operational principles of the ACP Board of Directors. The ACP Board of Directors manages the business of the Association while Chapter officers tailor activities to the needs of their membership.

The purpose of ACP is to provide an environment for the exchange of experiences and information. This includes identification of common planning needs and potential recovery response solutions as well as networking opportunities through local and national alliances. 

ACP Members: 

• Learn about state-of-the-art contingency and business continuity techniques
• Serve as a unifying force in defining and leading this rapidly evolving field
• Identify and implement means and methods for public and private sector collaboration and interface.

ACP membership is open to anyone with an interest in or responsibility for the varied aspects of contingency planning.
