Company Profile
Our team is composed of highly skilled and
experienced professionals with a broad-based understanding of current continuity
and contingency issues as well as the best practices for both industry and
government. This is backed up with professional certifications from DRII (the
Disaster Recovery Institute International) and PMI (the Project Management
Institute). We're dedicated to providing you with high-value, quick results, at
a cost highly competitive in the business contingency industry.
We maintain our currency in continuity and
contingency management by conducting our own research, attending professional
association meetings, and participating in training programs, such as those
offered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The founders of CPOCS, Dr. William G. Chadick
and Dr. Michael H. Flanagan, are highly trained and experienced in the areas of
organization continuity planning and operations concepts.
Dr. Chadick conducted his doctorate in
management research on business contingency planning. Bill has put his training
into practice by developing major operations centers for Department of Defense
organizations, major telecommunications companies, and large municipal utilities
for both daily and emergency operations. He also is an experienced project
manager and a certified Project Management Professional (PMP). Because of this
you can be assured our engagements with your company or group will conform to
the highest ethical standards and our deliverables will be on target, on
schedule and within budget.
Dr. Flanagan's original research for his
doctorate in management focused on Virtual Consolidated Emergency Operations
Centers. Like Bill, Mike also has managed major risk and business continuity
issues across multiple industries, large city and county governmental
organizations, as well as within the Department of Defense. Additionally he has
an extensive background in systems management, software application development
and testing, and project management.
