Shadow-Planner

Shadow-Planner ensures that, during an incident, your organisation’s business continuity plans are in the hands of the people who need them.

The app works with the Shadow-Planner BCM enterprise software solution from Phoenix IT Group. The app synchronises with the business continuity plans held in Shadow-Planner and provides a mobile version of these plans for the user of the iOS device. Specific features include:

• Summary business continuity plans (known within Shadow-Planner as ‘Action Plans’) detailing what to do and when

• Drill-down capability to view specific actions along with associated documents and people responsible

• Hierarchical contact groups with drill down facilities to find contact details for key staff members

• Contact staff by phone, SMS or email, either individually or SMS/email to the whole group

• Search for contacts or Action Plans by name

• Passcode protection for all data

• Synchronisation of contact and plan data with the enterprise application ensures that your mobile business continuity data is always up-to-date

• Download detailed documents on demand or include them in the regular synchronisation

• Circulate documents by email direct from the iOS device, or print to an AirPrint printer

The app is of great value to all personnel involved in a business continuity response. In particular, business continuity professionals, members of the crisis management team, and IT professionals.
