Government Resilient Comms Advice

In a recent Business Continuity Report by the Chartered Institute of Management, 24% of companies surveyed said that they had experienced a loss of telecommunications in the last year (Page 7 Table).

The British Government has published guidelines for organisations and businesses on preparedness and resilience planning with regards to critical services like broadband communications. Resilient Communications are a fundamental enabler underpinning the effective response of businesses and organisations in an emergency.

Tariam’s satellite broadband solutions are one of the only ways that businesses and organisations can provide themselves with a true broadband connection that’s independent of the local telecoms infrastructure.

Within this White Paper on Government Telecommunications Resilience Planning, the Cabinet Office specifically highlights in recommendation 17, Page 22:-

Recognise that high availability and high resilience services will cost more than standard services, and do not use cost as the main criterion when procuring these services.

The Government is pushing all telecommunications managers and company directors to take steps to protect their businesses against telecommunications failures which are a fact of life.

Satellite internet using our iconnect solution has a key role to play in any well thought out business continuity plan. Its one of the only truly robust methods of broadband communications that doesn’t rely on the local copper infrastructure.
