HERNDON, VA, May 01, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- COOP Systems' award winning BCM software now provides the ability for organizations to proactively plan for pandemics events, as well as manage and monitor an actual pandemic crisis.

myCOOP's easy to use system allows organizations to have planners easily review, document and update pandemic plans and procedures. In addition, integrated Incident Command provides real-time capabilities critical for pandemic management.

For all pandemic planning and response, a seven-step process is available:

1. Identify Key Business Processes
2. Minimize Impact on Key Employees
3. Establish Pandemic Policies and Guidelines
4. Determine Required Resources
5. Create Emergency Communications System and Crisis Control Center
6. Coordinate with External Organizations and Community
7. Prepare for Post-Pandemic Scenarios

"Although we've had this pandemic capability for some time, we have now made it available with other Incident Command dashboard features. The result is to easily link to other powerful tools to support the complete planning and response process," said Chris Alvord, CEO of COOP Systems. "For example, we can now map a new incident type called PANDEMIC to street-level maps worldwide. Emergency notification to special pandemic groups is available. Quick surveys of employees worldwide are automated and viewable graphically."

"For our current customers, these new features are usable now. For new clients, as with all myCOOP capabilities, production use is immediate without coding or system design and installation delays."
