TRB Webinar: Business Continuity Planning for Disruptions at Airports

TRB conducted a webinar on Tuesday, June 20, 2017, from 2:00PM to 3:30PM ET that features research from TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 93: Operational and Business Continuity Planning for Prolonged Airport Disruptions and Synthesis 78: Continuity of Operations Planning for Small Airports. The research provides insight into business planning to prepare for disruptive or irregular airport operations. This webinar described how to adopt a plan for sustained operational resiliency in the face of disruptions and the ways to evaluate and measure the effectiveness of such a plan. The presenters discussed both business continuity planning (BCP) and continuity of operations planning (COOP) and will identify how these can be effectively applied to smaller airports.

The slides are available.
