Need for Preparedness (cont’d.) The 9/11 Commission Report identified the private sector as
having significant risks in being able to respond to and recover from disruption; and
Private-sector leaders should consider the impact of disruptions and possible consequences for employees, families, and neighborhoods/communities.

Why Certify?
Third-party certification may not be the answer for all businesses, but those organizations that find it brings market value may choose to certify to one of the three standards. Certification makes you proactive in safeguarding your operations
against unforeseen hazards; Certification minimizes your business operation risk; Certification identifies inefficiencies; Certification leverages marketing opportunities for differentiation; Certification illustrates good corporate citizenship; and Certification places your organization among a prestigious business
community.
