Team SERVPRO Uses the Emergency Ready Plan and Profile (ERP) as a Proactive Means to Help Mitigate Commercial Water Damage

An old saying counsels not to “borrow trouble,” but working with a reputable disaster recovery company to formulate a response to the potential damage a water loss can do to your Nashville business can avoid and minimize negative consequences. As a successful business owner, you anticipate problems and devise solutions for many different aspects of your operations. Creating a contingency plan with us to address water damage issues is a smart business decision.

The best outcome when water damage affects your Nashville business depends on a speedy response from well-qualified restoration professionals. Our efforts to mitigate a water emergency are most efficient when we are familiar with the physical layout of your commercial property and have immediate access to critical details about your priorities and preferences. An understanding of how your business delivers goods and services to your clientele permits us to try to do our restoration work without disrupting your entire enterprise.

SERVPRO developed a method to codify all the above data and more into our Emergency Ready Plan and Profile (ERP). Providing all the information we need to respond effectively and efficiently to a crisis at your company in a concise online document eliminates delays and gets you back in business fast. About half of businesses forced to shutter their windows and lock their doors to deal with water damage or other disasters find it hard to reopen and thrive. Plan with us to avoid these problems.

The ERP process begins with an assessment of your commercial property by a seasoned member of the SERVPRO management team. Expect the walkthrough of your property to be thorough and consider the suggestions we make to minimize the risk to your business property by adjusting and adapting aspects of your operations like storage decisions, equipment placement, and the completion of repairs and routine maintenance.

SERVPRO assembles a file of pictures, blueprints, and locations of key systems, including utility shutoffs during the assessment. We also encourage you to answer the questions our mobile app to enhance the assessment with Insights only you can provide, such as a list of vendors and contractors who can assist and answer questions we might have about equipment and systems as we complete the water damage restoration. Designate specific managers or employees to work with us if you are not available when the water loss occurs, crucial as waiting even a few hours increases the risk of progressive and secondary water damage dramatically.

Collaborate with SERVPRO of South Nashville, creating an Emergency Ready Plan that streamlines our response to any commercial water damage circumstances placing your business at risk. Call (615) 331-0200 to schedule an initial assessment and to notify us if the ERP needs implementation.
