Alexandria, VA – September 21, 2011 – The Club Managers Association of America is pleased to announce its collaboration with Agility Recovery to provide business continuity services to CMAA member-managed clubs. Agility Recovery will work with CMAA member-managed facilities to help institute disaster preparedness planning and, in the event of disaster or business interruption, provide the assistance they need to continue to operate. Recovery services are not limited to natural disaster recovery but include any type of business interruption from loss of power, fire, etc.
“Clubs need to be prepared for whatever happens. You never know what might occur which could prevent you from meeting the needs of your members,” shares CMAA CEO Jim Singerling, CCM. “This type of service to the club facilities managed by our CMAA members is crucial.”
If you need to update your club’s preparedness plan or have any type of business interruption, Agility is a turn-key best practices plan that will rescue your business during a time of need. Agility will deliver any, or all, of the four key elements of business continuity to get your organization up and running: Power Generator, Office Space, Technology and Connectivity. Formerly known as GE Disaster Recovery Services, Agility has 21 years of experience rescuing organizations of all types and proudly points to a 100 percent success rate.
“Every organization needs a continuity plan regardless of size or industry and Agility makes it easy for business owners to have one,” says Bob Boyd, CEO of Agility Recovery. “CMAA members will have access to more than $35 million in assets including generators, servers, PCs and mobile office space, our online planning tool and our dedicated customer service team. We make it easy to get your organization back in business – fast.”
