Most health and global security experts agree that a pandemic flu epidemic is inevitable—it’s not a matter of “if” but “when.” In the event of a pandemic outbreak, commercial office buildings may face extended closures and limited access, creating stresses for their tenants, property management teams, and investors.
Part 1
This 1-hour webinar is designed to provide specific guidance to help prepare not only the property management teams but also tenants for such an emergency. For some tenants, especially smaller, single-location operations, extended office closures could spell financial ruin, so it’s important that both the tenant and the property management staff have strategies in place to assure that those businesses survive in the event of a widespread flu outbreak.
Webinar will cover
- Strategies for preparing tenants for Bird Flu—(identifying their business continuity plans and needs; preparing building’s technology infrastructure, if needed; special training for tenants, if needed; reminders about building closures and access changes)
- Lease Review—what do current leases afford in terms of building closures, tenants’ business continuity insurance requirements, technology requirements (to support extended office closures)
- Insurance Review—what are the insurance needs of the building and of the tenants?
- Tips for preparing building staff to manage the building remotely, if the situation warrants it. (Technology needs/requirements, determining closure/access plans, communicating to building staff and tenants about extended closures, training building staff to be prepared)
Part 2
Part 2 will focus on what operational strategies multi-tenant buildings need to address as part of their Pandemic Flu preparedness planning. The Webinar will highlight building systems requirements, such as HVAC, access control programs, and telecommunications, to help building managers and engineers adapt operational requirements and strategies in the face of both a potential contamination in the building and for an extended building closure or limited access for building personnel.
