What goes into a backup plan for a location?
A one-page plan per plant, agreed with your team, so both sides know what happens before anything goes wrong.
| Part | What it says |
|---|---|
| Contacts | Your shift contact and our 24/7 line |
| Critical runs | Which shifts and routes come first |
| Stand-in vehicles | Where the backup car comes from, and how long it takes |
| Whole-route failure | How staff are moved if a route cannot run |
| Escalation | Who decides, at what point |
What sets the response time?
Mainly how far the nearest spare car is. Near our Hansalpur Circle branch it is usually quickest; further away, or in the middle of the night, it takes longer, which is why the plan names the source for each location.
See replacement vehicles and driver absence.
Can you help with business continuity planning?
Yes. For transport, continuity means knowing which runs are essential and how they keep running when vehicles, drivers or roads fail. We work that out with you and write it into the plan.
