A crisis plan may be written with the very best of intentions, but many are of little use in a real crisis. The way we look at it, a crisis plan has to be more than just a list of phone numbers. But it can't be a textbook either.

At The Wilson Group, we build plans with just one priority: they have to work.

We know from experience that crisis plans have to be easy to use. They will do you little good if you can't find what you're looking for and find it in a hurry. And in the midst of a real crisis, you could care less about how to define a crisis. What you need is help in managing it.

Every crisis plan we write is designed with the concept that it should be a tool, not a solution. It should help guide you and help you resolve the situation as quickly and successfully as possible.

And at The Wilson Group, we've tossed out any preconceived ideas of what a crisis plan should look like. We've found that three-ring binders don't fit well in small brief cases and laminated cards can only carry so much information.

In a world where PCs, pagers and cellular phones have become standard in the workplace, we've created "on-line" crisis plans that can be incorporated into your organization's intranet or computer network, or loaded into your personal laptop. Finding your way through our new crisis plan is as easy as double clicking on your icon of choice.

Of course, we'll still give you a printed version of your crisis plan. And we'll even put it into a three-ring binder for you at no extra charge.

And don't ever think you'll just be getting a generic plan in which one size fits all. You can be involved as much as you wish in the building of your plan. And once completed, we'll show you how to use it and we'll be more than happy to let you test drive it in your next mock disaster or emergency drill.

You see while we design a lot of crisis plans, we don't design them for ourselves, but for our clients. Every one is designed to be used by real people to solve real problems in real crises.

And if you already have a crisis plan, that's great. We'll take a look at it, critique it and provide suggestions on how you might want to improve it - all free of charge. And if you want us to update or reformat it, we'll be happy to give you an estimate.

In most cases, you'll find we can probably do it more efficiently, in less time and for less overall cost than if you did it yourself.
