For Operations or safety director, crisis manager, communications lead, executive leadership

Talk to us about thisHow it works
You receiveCrisis Preparedness Assessment and Gap Analysis · Severity Levels and Declaration Criteria Matrix · One integrated Crisis Management Plan (six components)
Timing and scopeConfirmed with you after a first conversation, once we understand your organization.
What happens nextA walkthrough and handover, then a test to prove it works.

In a crisis, leaders need one place to turn: who decides, who is told, how people are kept safe, how damage is assessed and how the response is run. We start with a preparedness assessment, then build one integrated plan covering emergency action, damage assessment, crisis declaration, teams and communications, and emergency operations, and walk your crisis management team through it. Kalosys does the writing.

Questions leaders ask

What is the difference between a crisis and an emergency?

An emergency is an immediate threat to people or property, such as a fire or flood. A crisis is a broader event that threatens the organization's objectives, reputation or operations. An emergency can become a crisis.

What is the difference between BC testing and DR testing?

BC testing validates that business processes can continue; DR testing validates that IT systems can be recovered. Crisis drills test leadership, decisions and communications.

How often should plans be tested and updated?

At least annually, and after major changes or incidents.

Why it matters nowThe numbers behind this
57%of organizations said their most recent major outage cost more than $100,000, and 1 in 5 reported costs over $1 million (Source: Uptime Institute, Annual Outage Analysis 2026)
85%of those human-error outages stem from staff failing to follow procedures, or from flaws in the procedures themselves (Source: Uptime Institute, Annual Outage Analysis 2025)
